Synopsis
A sequence of childhood memories and historical trivia, all coinciding with the artist's date of birth, shifts in tone as he discovers what also happened in his native Peru that same day in 1989. A violent act of intolerance reframes this list of innocent coincidences as reflections on oppressive masculinity, the subtle tactics of imperialist power, and a neoliberal dream that allowed this event to be quietly forgotten.
