Synopsis

Spoiler shield

El Eternauta's wife is Elsa Sánchez, widow of Héctor Germán Oesterheld, writer of “El Eternauta” (1957), the masterpiece of the Argentinian comic; a woman whose family was taken away by the military dictatorship. A vital and close chronicle of the struggle for survival in the midst of horror and a testimony in which pain and love for life go hand in hand.
