This documentary rescues from oblivion an experience of cultural resistance during the Uruguayan dictatorship. Education conceived in another way: creation, freedom, expression. A film course for children organized by the Uruguayan Cinemateca. An experience that awakened vocations, or created them. Thirty years later, several referents of Uruguayan culture revive the experience that united them as children, and that forever marked a generation of creators.

Desde adentro
Sound Director
Two inmates at Canelones prison fight for a better future, running a voluntary rehabilitation programme.
Two Hitlers
Camera Operator
One is a former police officer, bodyguard and hairdresser. Currently retired, he takes care of his extravagant and almost hundred-year-old illiterate mother. He writes poems and hopes to see them published one day. The other, a declared womanizer, workaholic, and leftist, was imprisoned during the dictatorship, runs a small grocery shop, and controls the life of his young second wife. Both were born in the Uruguayan hinterland during the Second World War, and share the same name as well as the fact that neither has wished to change it. The film is a tragicomic portrait of a country whose cultural diversity, its peculiar history and the character of its inhabitants allow the existence of exceptional and remarkable persons that depict a live picture of Uruguay, with its plurality and contradictions, its small and large history, without departing a single moment from irony or reflection.
