More About Film

In 1972, Uruguay unavoidably fell into a terrible dictatorship. Diego and Leonardo, two writers of a well-known television comedy show, struggle to maintain their integrity under the pressure they receive to tone down their political satires against the military. On the side of the oppressors, Rojas, the lieutenant in charge of torturing subversive youth, finds emotional refuge in Susana, a prostitute. Slowly, the lives of all of them are deeply impacted by the yoke of the dictatorship looming over them.
