Overview

"Chicha, Hope and Pain" addresses the emblematic figure of Chicha Mariani, founder of the "Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo." It is structured in two phases: that of hope, that of the young journalist Juan Martín Ramos Padilla, who wrote Chicha's biography; and that of pain, that of a woman who fought for 42 years of her life, not only to recover her stolen granddaughter, but also to restore justice and dignity.
