When Claudia reviews the photographs and objects of Julia Chambi, her great aunt, she begins a journey into the past, reliving the footsteps of who can be considered the first Andean and Peruvian woman photographer. Julia, daughter, sister, woman, artist, photographer, politician and lover of Cusco reveals herself in every story, place or person that remembers her.

Five stories about dignity in the capital of Peru. A local leader looking for someone to leave the post of her complex work, a tourist guide who is a patron of the architectural heritage and Creole music, an ex-delinquent rescued by the Evangelical Church, a teenage dancer of Afro-Peruvian music forced to emigrate and a muralist of Bellas Artes son of Andean migrants, they try to get ahead in Barrios Altos, the most feared – but also most beloved – historic neighborhood of Lima.

A dreamer with a calm and minstrel attitude lays on the grass, recites a poem and makes an offer to a tree. Is he dreaming, or is he a part of a dream? A contemporary peasant dress in a nostalgic revolution’s uniform, goes with his work routine in the countryside, takes care of the cows and thinks about the meaning of death and dream. The real documents and fiction blends into the path of the characters in a rural area in Cuba, and becomes a metaphor of an island inside another island or a dream inside another dream.

Three filmmakers recorded three women from different generations that they met through their virtual testimonies where they revealed personal experiences of violence. Although they do not know each other, they contrast their reflections, similarities, frustrations and differences about growing up as a woman in a context shaken by gender gaps.
