The German pioneer of paragliding Oliver Guenay traveled to more than sixty countries in the last twenty years. His Chilean daughter Eloisa Saavedra, who is 18 years old, grew up in a rather bourgeois world in Santiago de Chile and has never traveled further than Argentina. Her native language is Spanish. Oliver is German and his Spanish language skills are limited. The contact between the two was limited to occasional visits by Oliver to Chile. Eloisa just turned 18 and now she wants to learn paragliding from her father near Santiago in December. Will they grow closer to each other via paragliding? Can they manage to overcome the barriers of culture and language? Will a real father-daughter-relationship develop?
