This documentary is a testimonial fabric that attempts to reconstruct the memory of the struggle and the legendary figure of Lucio Cabañas, a rural teacher from the State of Guerrero who was murdered by the army in 1974, and who lead one of the most important guerrilla movements in Mexico during the sixties and seventies. The testimonies of ex guerrillas, sympathizers, relatives and historians provide a guide for reflection on the guerrilla, its causes and the recurrence of armed movements in the social struggle that has characterized the convulsed Mexico of the last century.
