Chile is one of the most important ingredients in Mexican culture. It is a fundamental piece of Mexicanness and its use goes far beyond gastronomy. "El Son Del Chile Frito" emerges from a recognition of the cultural diversity of Oaxaca, comparing it with the same variety that this species has. Just as chile is a fundamental part of our daily life, the traditions and customs of the area are the basis of the identity and sense of belonging of any Mexican.

A group of children, still in their early years, gather together to share a moment of play. They all agree that they are going to play war, more precisely, the Falklands War. They divide into two sides: Argentine and English, paint their flags, choose their weapons, and take up positions. It is only a game, but as time goes by, something of the tragic dimension of the events that marked Argentine history will take root in their consciousness.
