Suspenseful, riveting . . . Achieves a universality that is movingly personal. The New York Times
The explosively provocative, award-winning drama set in a country that has just emerged from a totalitarian dictatorship
Gerardo Escobar has just been chosen to head the commission that will investigate the crimes of the old regime when his car breaks down and he is picked up by the humane doctor Roberto Miranda. But in the voice of this good Samaritan, Gerardo's wife, Paulina Salas, thinks she recognizes another man the one who raped and tortured her as she lay blindfolded in a military detention center years before.

Sie hat sich mit ihrem Mann an einen abgelegenen Ort zurückgezogen. Eines Tages bringt Gerardo einen Besucher mit, Dr. Robert Miranda. Seine Stimme ruft in ihr die Erinnerung an einen der Folterknechte wach. Paulina beginnt einen vernichtenden Rachefeldzug... (Verfilmt von Roman Polanski mit Sigourney Weaver, Ben Kingsley und Stuart Wilson)
