    • Synopsis
    • This documentary tells the story of two breaths: on the one hand Iratxe Sorzabal's breath; on the other, her mother's, Mari Nieves Diaz. Both, each on their own way, have been suffocated by torture. The former has lived in person how her breath left her body. The latter has felt it through the body of the daughter who was once part of her. This story wants to narrate those two invisible breaths, their suffocation, their double suffering. This is the story of Iratxe's agony, heard mainly through the mother's voice and memories, and supported by her daughter's own voice when possible.
