Story

Celsa shares her account of survival during Paraguay's decades-long dictatorship under Alfredo Stroessner. Imprisoned and tortured while pregnant, she endured separation from loved ones and witnessed the regime's brutality firsthand. Decades later, she reflects on these experiences alongside her mother and son, each carrying their own scars. The film interweaves her journey of processing trauma with her connection to nature's healing remedies.
