Democratic Opposition
“We buried our democracy, we buried our freedom” (I. Allende)

Former politicians from the banished parties populate the mild opposition, still dangerous and illegal.
Professors, teachers, artists, journalists, all try to resist censorship and are marked as dangerous subversives.
They are various people, who all want to restore democracy by organized political and peaceful actions, strongly blaming violence both from the regime and MIR.
Thoughts, art, words, they still have the power to convince the conscience of a country. Or to sentence it to death.

The democratic opposition will build its game on the universal values of civilization, right, freedom, into a context where they have been wiped out and forbidden.
THEMES: democratic values, responsibility, hope, resistance.

Teaser:


The smell of fresh grass and the stink of fear, the fiery passion and the cold terror, friendly hands caressing the skin and harsh ones violating the body. The prayers and the screams, the blind anger and the resigned desperation. Cold, tears, blood, sweat and insanity. Poetry is a catharsis for Carmen, an excruciating thought from a past long gone. Today there is death and a mournful silence, and the pen that once danced at the tune of democracy and freedom, is forever broken.

Relations:


At her book presentation she met Professor Gustavo Ruiz   who asked her to sign his copy; he was enthusiast of her work.
Marcia Scantlebury   is a dear friend who always encouraged her to give a soul to her thoughts and poetry. She fondly remembers a childhood friend Rosa Humilde Ramos   a kind and gentle girl; now that girl stands beyond an abyss.
