Gerónima was a real Mapuche woman in Argentine Patagonia, living with her four sons in a modest house on ancestral land. In 1976, amid the military dictatorship, social workers, concerned about her health, took the family to a hospital “to help them,” causing tragic results. The film retells her story from a physician’s interview, starring Mapuche actress Luisa Calcumil and featuring Aimé Painé’s Mapuche songs.
