The latest film released by director Andrés Wood returns to the memory prior to the dictatorship in Chile, which he had already dealt with in Machuca (2004). On this occasion his gaze focuses on the lives of three young people who served in the ranks of the extreme right and their motivations to concentrate on the struggle against Marxism. Memory as a forum for reflection and approach to the past makes this title an effective way to know who is behind each social sector in Chile today. 


Synopsis: Inés, Justo and Gerardo are three twenty-somethings who are part of a violent far-right, nationalist group that wants to overthrow the government of Salvador Allende. In the heat of the struggle they are involved in a risky and passionate love triangle and commit a political crime that separates them forever. Forty years later, Gerardo reappears. It is not onlyrevenge that inspires him, but also his obsession with reviving his cause. Inés is now an influential businesswoman and will do everything in her power so that Gerardo does not divulge her past or that of her husband, Justo.
