On Each Side is part of The Global Lens Collection

Evocative and lyrical, On Each Side follows the interconnected lives of several characters who are affected by the building of the Rosario-Victoria Bridge in Argentina – a gargantuan, modern undertaking that links two Argentinean cities. A photographer discovers a key to his past when he meets an unlikely pair: a thief with a curvaceous partner in crime. Two sisters experience a sexual re-awakening after they take on a boarder – a German bridge engineer who enjoys clandestine trysts with a transvestite chanteuse across the river. A pair of adventurous boys grow into young men as the bridge is constructed above them. On Each Side is the story of a bridge that not only traverses a river but spans the traditional and the modern, the past and the future.
