Gabriela and Alejandro are members of the FPMR, a faction engaged in armed resistance against Augusto Pinochet’s dictatorship. In 1988, during Gabriela’s forced exile in Europe, they stay in touch through clandestine audio cassettes.

From exile, she continues to seek support. He is forced to leave the struggle behind to care for their two children.

In the darkness, their voices bear witness to political struggle at its most intimate. More than historical documents, they reach us with their full sensory power.

Written and directed by Valentina Barriga
