Two paths cross on a tortuous descent into Guatemala's tragic past : Mateo Pablo, Maya survivor of one of many massacres that took place during the country's recent civil war, and Daniel Hernández-Salazar, Guatemalan artist and photographer whose work grapples with local humain rights violations. Together they travel to a remote site in the highlands where the community of Petanac once stood. Mateo grew up and lived here until 1982, when his familiy and neighbours were tortured and murdered by the Guatemalan army, whose soldiers later burned Petanac to the ground. But memory lingers. At Petanac and other Maya communities across Guatemala, survivors gather to beat witness as forensic experts unearth the mass graves of their loved ones.
