Guapo'y

Celsa lives in the darkness of her bedroom, covering her body with roots. She lives in search of remedies to alleviate the pain caused by the torture she experienced 45 years ago during the military dictatorship in Paraguay. She collects and grinds seeds and leaves. But in this environment the sound of the rooms is suddenly interrupted by voices vindicating Stroessner's dictatorship. On the damp earth, Celsa holds her body among the plants, insisting on an encounter with herself.
