Summary
Originating from filmmaker Cecilia Aldarondo's suspicion that there was something ugly in her family's past, the film charts her excavation of the buried family conflict around her uncle Miguel's death, and her search for Miguel's partner Robert a generation later. A cautionary tale about the unresolved conflicts wrought by AIDS, and a nuanced exploration of how faith is used and abused in times of crisis
