One Street Away is an intimate and honest portrayal of the overlooked communities of Buenos Aires, Argentina. The spaces where the villas can be found were, until very recently, left blank on maps, yet their associations with crime and poverty are well-known and often perpetuated by local media. Tourists visiting Buenos Aires are often warned not to wander into the villas. But in reality, these are vibrant hubs where people get by on wits and ingenuity. Where everything they have, they make: from buildings to power lines to sewage systems. And where the marginalized of society come together to form diverse, self-governing communities. One Street Away delves deeper into society's preconceived ideas of shanty towns and retells the story of urban migration through the experiences of the people who live there. One Street Away captures rarely-seen footage of three distinct communities: Villa 31 (a settlement in the southeast part of the city), Fuerte Apache (a failed housing project in the western outskirts of Buenos Aires) and December 23 (a rural settlement 30 kilometres from the centre). Filmed over four years, this documentary follows community leaders, residents and business owners as they strive to find their voices and build better lives for their families.
