Fuenzalida, Riquelme, Zúñiga, Donosoand Maldonado are a group of tired women with no time or energy left for remembering. Only when their exhausted bodies are sleeping or dreaming do their memories awaken and do they manage to find themselves again. In this vague environment, they try to piece together a shared memory about EstrellaGonzález, one of their classmates when they were younger who one day left and never came back after a terrible and real event that scarred their generation for life –the murder of three communists, called the ‘DegolladosCase’. Estrella’sfather one of the people responsible for this crime and, remembering Estrella, they reconstruct their school years in Chile in the eighties. Dreams and memories. Fragmented memories. Games from the past and the present. What politics is, what violence is, what remembering is. False hands and invading Martians flickering on a TV screen. The tabloids reporting on femicide. A Chevy ploughingthrough the night and three bodies with their throats slit at dawn. The awakening of little girls from a nightmare. The sleep cycle of a group of tired women, submerged in this frenzied present, trying to wake up.
