Overview
The story of Pepe, a young Chilean gay man in his 30s, living in Italy, who returns to his homeland and discovers that his biological father - a man he had never met - is none other than Colonel Rodrigo Retamal, the former head of Chilean police intelligence. Retamal, we discover, was convicted of human rights violations, including the killing of six communist activists in 1973, during the early days of Pinochet’s coup. He was punished 20 years later with a night in jail. After a moment of deep confusion, Pepe makes the stunning decision to meet his father and confront him.
