Synopsis:
For seven years, Agustín Ostos traveled across the Americas by motorcycle, from Ushuaia to Alaska, filming every step and building Soy Tribu, a viral project that celebrates human diversity, connection, and freedom. But behind the epic landscapes and digital success, another story emerges: that of a man searching for meaning. This feature documentary interweaves the footage from his journey with an introspective present filmed in Cabo Polonio, where Agustín, far from everything, pauses to reflect on what he has lived, to write, and to converse with his filmmaker friend. Soy Tribu is an existential exploration of travel as an act of letting go rather than conquest, an intimate and spiritual portrait of Latin America, and an invitation to inhabit questions rather than seek definitive answers.
