Directed by:  Raymundo Gleyzer

Storyline:  After years of activism, a charismatic labor leader gains power within the union in the 1960s, but soon becomes a corrupt bureaucrat and becomes a pawn of Big Capital. This film is a lucid portrait of the web of power and its temptations, like a revolutionary critique by Raymundo Gleyzer in an act of courage that cost him his life during the dictatorship of the 1970s in Argentina. A staging with an honest testimonial character of the agitated beginnings of the workers' revolts and struggles.
