On 10 December 2006, Chilean dictator General Pinochet dies. His decease triggers a 24-hour revival of political divisions that marked recent Chilean history with violence and the death of many people. On this special day in the country's history, the directors let a group of Chilean people speak out. We see how they react to the news of Pinochet's death. The reactions are surprising, excessive. People speak out openly, they yell, they spit. The filmmakers have captured this moment in reality and shown it in the rawest way. The film narrates the ending of a key chapter in Chilean history in an innovative, exciting way.
