Synopsis
Bibiana delivers and rents washing machines for less than 1 dollar per hour. John William walks dozen miles a day dragging furniture that he sells by credit and without guarantee. Chocolate and Chiqui are a very young couple who has spent more than half of their lives looking for cardboard, plastic and paper to feed themselves and their baby. Uver is a “minutes seller”. Jairo is a illegal calibrator of buses…
These are just some of the names and faces that we can meet during a walk through any place in Bogota . They are informal vendors or just workers of that "submerged" economy of which survives more than half a country.
These ingenious activities, these business opportunities in a city which life is mainly on the streets, it's what Colombians call “Rebusque”. And this is precisely what these 52 minute documentary shows. This is a tirelessly walk in Bogota , up to stories from those who survived thanks to "Rebusque."
