Synopsis
Early on, Ugo Ulive, with his short film Como el Uruguay no hay (1960), seeks to raise awareness and involve the viewer in political action and its radical transformation. Through a collage of animations, archival footage and a counterpoint sound montage, Ulive attacks traditional left-wing and right-wing politics and exposes the contradictions of a pillar of national identity: Uruguay's famous democracy. Note that we are in 1960 and while the voice over presents Montevideo as "a small agitated city", the images show a tense scenario with social protests and a politicized urban space with the presence of mounted police.
