AWARDS: Havana Film Festival - Best Actress/Best Screenplay, Latin American Film Festival of Biarritz – Audience Award
When democracy starts to impose itself over the weakened Latin American dictatorships, a man flees through the forest of a Uruguayan seaside resort. He is from Chile and hides at a police station. He desperately maintains that he has been kidnapped, that they want to kill him and that he is called Berríos. The allegation reaches Judge Santacruz, who asks his assistant, lawyer Julia Gudari, to take charge of the investigation. Julia shortly finds out that the police have tried to erase all traces of the case. She does not find any answers at the Embassy of Chile either. Julia discovers that the Chilean citizen is a biochemical engineer who secretly worked for Pinochet, and who was convinced he would be able to “gas Buenos Aires with chemical weapons.” Julia starts to unravel a dark story which involves her directly, as both her father, General Gudari, and her brother, Ivan, are part of the alliance that will do everything they can to keep Julia away from the truth.
