Plot

Following the fall of Juan Domingo Perón, this documentary, produced during the Revolución Libertadora, sets out to dismantle the political and symbolic construct of Peronism. Through archival footage and an openly oppositional narrative, the film questions Perón's leadership and the role of Eva Perón, presenting them as the cornerstones of a regime based on manipulation, a cult of personality, and the control of society.
