Set entirely in the city residence of a of a notable, but not ruling-class family of Mexico, this drama explores what happened during a 1968 student uprising, which was brutally suppressed by the government.

The family looks out onto the streets as the dramatic events of that time unfold. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi
