Synopsis: In Spain, after the Civil War; in Buenos Aires in an occupied University and inside a mother’s womb two brothers indulge in a discussion regarding the following issue: is it better to die fighting than to escape while living? Grandparents, fathers and sons take up this issue once again in different times and spaces, asking ourselves one more time if it is more correct to do what must be done or to do what may be done. In the meantime, women ask themselves once again: what sense is there in giving birth to sons who will die in battle?
