Victoria Donda Perez is one of the first babies born in a clandestine detention centre during the Argentinean military dictatorship of the late 1970’s. Her mother pierced her ears and knotted little blue threads as hoops, so she could later recognise her daughter. Thirty years on Victoria embarks on a journey of self-discovery to find out what happened to her parents. She builds a documental portrait of her family where victims and oppressors live together.
