Eighty bullets to the wing

I wonder what it means to reconstruct a tragedy: is it to return to the zero fragment of the nightmare to organise the shards of that pain, or is it to retell the story, to knead it, to reinvent it and share it until the poison dissolves? 

 

Absences, absence, lead and gunpowder, joy and life frozen by the green Falcons. A city on the dissection table. La Plata in 1975 as the setting for this journey in search of Mario, my father, of the story that binds us forever as a misty and fragmented mirror of other stories, so many, indelibly marked by that time of bullets and wings.
