Sinopse

This piece is a dark comedy, presenting a uchronia in which a group of Chileans travel to Portugal, which has become the most successful communist nation in history. Their goal is to ask for help to implement such a governance model in South America and finally secure a constitution that can bring peacefulness to Chile, which has been ravaged by repeated social crises and loss of identity. It is a reflexion on notions such as dictatorship, revolution and peace in a society concerned with unbridled success, polls and moving toward the future without taking responsibility for the past and without appreciating the sacrifices caused by the fight against dictatorship and their impact in everyday life. — Gonçalo Amorim & Alexis Moreno
