Marquetalia 2022

Directed by Laura Linares

An old woman wears herself out with every movement, entrenched in her room. Each of the gestures of her aching body reminds her of the years of prison and torture she experienced as a political prisoner of the Uruguayan dictatorship. At the end of the 1960s, Élida Valdomir was an armed leader of the Tupac Amaru movement and never denied her commitment. In this almost closed door, yesterday's memories and today's images constantly respond to each other.
