This short documentary seeks to give voice to an area of work that is not so talked about today, the vendors in the commercial stands in the parks who have seen their field go through a great change after the arrival of the era digital technology driven by the internet, making all items sold physically now much more accessible by getting what they want online, changing the way these products are consumed in their physical format. We went to Rivadavia Park, a place well known for its relationship with fairground vendors and collecting, with the question of knowing how these small businesses continue to operate despite the digital age, which made the consumption of their main products more difficult to see.
