This feature length film explores the legacy and cultural resurgence of South American singer-songwriter and activist Victor Jara, who was brutally killed in 1973 following a military coup in Chile. Weaving interviews and archival materials (some rare), supported by an original sound score and a generous helping of Jara songs, the film reveals why Jara's values and music transcend multiple generations, remaining a powerful cultural symbol in the ongoing global struggle for human rights and social justice.
