​​How deep can you look into a perpetrator’s soul? We meet Ernesto, a man who wants to face up to the violence that he inflicted on his family. The filmmaker not only examines the personality of this desperate man, she also draws on his memories, in order to find the key to her own painful ones. Two people: a perpetrator and a victim. Ina Borrmann
