Doradilla

Directed by

Fernando Gabriel Sosa

In the stellar year 3042, drifting through the most remote reaches of the void, wanders the Millennium Condor: a derelict spacecraft from the CNIE (Falda del Carmen) that has outlasted both time and oblivion. Its sole crew member is Doradillo, a brass android with metallic memories whose existence is dedicated to a singular, sacred mission: guarding the fragments of a deferred dream—the vision of Argentina as a global power.

Through a visually breathtaking journey, the film rescues the milestones of technological sovereignty and the identity of a nation that once looked toward the stars:

The audacity of Project Condor II, the ambitious missile initiative of the 1980s.

The supersonic flight of the Pulqui, a symbol of vanguard industrial aeronautics.

The odyssey of “Mono Juan”, the first Argentine astronaut to conquer space in 1969.

The epic 1969 Argentine Mission at Nürburgring, where three Torinos, under the guidance of Juan Manuel Fangio, proved the tenacity of national ingenuity.

In the twilight of his lonely vigil, Doradillo receives an unexpected visitor: a spectral figure inspired by the legendary Captain Beto (from Luis Alberto Spinetta’s mythology). In an encounter charged with mysticism and poetic justice, the Captain grants the android final recognition for his unwavering loyalty. Doradillo is not merely a science fiction story; it is an act of cultural sovereignty that transforms technological history into an eternal space epic.
