Set in a country that has only recently returned to democracy.
Gerardo Escobar has just been chosen to head the commission
that will investigate the crimes of the old regime when his car
breaks down and he is picked up by the humane doctor Roberto
Miranda. But in the voice of this good Samaritan, Gerardo's wife,
Paulina, thinks she recognizes another man—the one who raped
and tortured her as she lay blindfolded in a military detention
center years before. She ties him to a chair and conducts her own
interrogation, gun in hand. Escobar doesn't know whether to
believe his distraught wife or his persuasive new friend.
This explosively provocative, award-winning drama is a
thrilling intellectual & emotional tug of war.
