Description

In a town in the southern Andes in Peru, a DJ from a local radio station decides to start a news report to share the stories from the victims of the Maoist guerrilla of the Shinning Path, as well as the brutal repression from the police and military forces during the Civil War that took place in the 80s and early 90s in the country. Due to this risky job, he'll be seen as an "enemy" for both of the parties in conflict, jeopardizing the news report as well as his own life.
