In November 1825, in the Bolivian city of Chuquisaca, doña Juana Azurduy Bermúdez de Padilla, heroine of the independence war against the Spanish army, receives the visit of the liberators Simón Bolívar, Antonio José de Sucre and José Miguel Lanza. Throughout a long conversation, the woman will receive the admiration of the rulers, while reminiscing the most significant episodes of her career as a patriot and commander of the armed forces.

Juana Azurduy, Guerrillera de la Patria Grande

As Bolivia stages the 50th anniversary of Ernesto "Che" Guevara's death, Julia, an old countryside teacher, is invited to share her historical story with the world: Giving a bowl of soup to the captured guerrilla in her classroom, while he recited a poem about flowers to her a few hours before his death. The invitation is withdrawn soon after, as other women step forward, claiming the story of "the soup and the flower" as their own.
