Chilean documentary that records a demonstration organized by the collective Women for Life (Mujeres por la Vida), held on August 29, 1988, in Paseo Ahumada in Santiago. During this public intervention, a thousand life-size black silhouettes were placed throughout the street as a symbolic memorial to the victims of repression during the military regime of Augusto Pinochet. The action sought to make visible the detained and disappeared, exiles, political prisoners, and all those affected by political violence in Chile at a time when many of these realities were still being silenced. Through the documentation of the protest, the film captures the collective’s call to remember and to keep historical memory alive, while the demonstration is eventually met with violent police repression.
