SINOPSIS
Sisyphus is a portrait of life in a unofficial rehabilitation center in Chiapas, Mexico. These places are non-professional addiction rehabilitation centers, and are the only alternative for the majority of mexicans despite sometimes being outside the law. Sisyphus is not a journalistic approach to the subject, it rather tries to see addiction as a metaphor for the human condition. The “Anexo”, as these places are called, is the space for this meditation, and the interns are the subjects where the humanity and difficulties of masculinity in Mexico are revealed.
