In 1998 she accused him of sexually abusing her as a child; almost twenty years later, she lives in exile in Costa Rica with her ten-year old son.[1][2][3] The film takes place during Ortega's electoral campaign, as he seeks reelection and reaching power for the fourth time,[4] and develops in two periods: the past, using archive footage when Zoilamérica made her accusation in 1998, and the present, in 2016, after being forced to live in exile.[6] Ultimately she shot the film in secret in Costa Rica, using a pseudonym to refer to Murillo during production.[7] In La Prensa, Cristiana Chamorro Barrios wrote that Zúniga “in a magical way, shows with art, there can be beauty in a dark tragedy.Her cameras manage to captivate us in a sordid story where the harshness of the events is told with the grace to get away from the morbid to give the victim dignity without revictimizing her.”[8]
