At the request of the College of Architects, La Alameda was held as an invitation to debate between residents, associations, technicians, parties, etc., on the fate of this sector of the city. The memory of the golden age of the Alameda, the gradual disappearance of its elements (anthropological, sociological, architectural), a survey on the causes of that disappearance, a critique of municipal management, as well as many suggestions -some contradictory- about what is still possible to do, constitute the object of the film, whose central theme is none other than the destruction of the historic centers and the expulsion of their inhabitants, particularized for a specific case. Countless conversations with popular interlocutors and a marked experimentalism in the image / sound relationship turn the film into a rapt show away from what could be a dogmatic lesson in urban planning.
