Ergo, recuerdos del futuro

by Loreto Quijada

This is a poetically fictionalized true story. It tells the story of Matías, a boy from the peripheral sector of Santiago de Chile, who steals some baby diapers from the supermarket. This trivial act meshes their lives inexorably with that of Larraín, a top business executive from Sanhattan in the Chilean financial mere. Their distant realities intertwine in a polarized country, marked by inequality and indifference, revealing an abysmal disparity and deeply rooted social cracks in contemporary Chilean society.
