Contents/Summary

Summary
Interweaving interviews and archival footage, “Seven Moments” is centered on seven insightful women who became involved in a radical urban guerilla group while still in their teens. The Tupamaros were active in Uruguay in the late 1960s and early 1970s, during a period of increased military power. As the women look back on their political past—the social injustices that led to their political activism, the moral dilemmas they faced, their imprisonment and torture—they speak intimately and openly about decisive moments that shaped their personal histories. Their stark memories of the group’s brutal suppression are interwoven with stories of the Tupamaros’ own political kidnappings, providing another vantage point on prisoner/guard interaction.
