- Summary:
- Victoria, a young Argentine woman, set out to find the truth about her parents who disappeared in 1978 during the military dictatorship. She was 18 months old at the time. Painful questions emerge: Were her parents terrorists? Did her father suffer more because he was Jewish? Why did they leave her behind when they all could have fled the country? With Argentina on the brink of social chaos today, Victoria finds herself facing the same difficult choices her parents had to make: to emigrate, or stay and fight for change.
