In a small village in the mountains of Córdoba, a group of women gather every week to find the best way to reenact an unknown popular uprising led by other women a long time in the past: the "Bread Riot of Cordoba” of 6 May 1652. While they try to recreate that old story, their gestures and words awaken the resonances of their own experiences of struggle and resistance: hard work, being women in rural Córdoba, their own memories of war, dictatorship and hunger, and the memories of their grandmothers.
