Denisse is 23 years old. She lives in Mexico City. She wants to become a DJ. Laura Esquivel is 19. She was born and raised at a small ranch in Zacatecas known as El Verde. She is goatherd. With Denisse playing music and Laura tending to the goats, it seems improbable that their paths will ever cross, but meeting each other is quite feasible in the world of their thoughts.
No hay olvido, composed of three parts, each directed by a young Chilean filmmaker forced to flee his country, is about the difficult condition of exiles in a specific political and social context, in this case, Quebec. The first part, entitled J'explique certaines choses, is in Spanish with French subtitles, and shows us more precisely the lifestyle of a group of Chileans. In Slowly, which forms the second part, we are asked, through Lucia, a young Chilean exile, the problem of integration into a new social environment. Finally, Jours de fer (Steel Blues), the third and only part available in English, is a cruel reminder of the harsh condition of the uprooted man who must find work at all costs to ensure his survival.
