00:00We were 17 years old, with the innocence of the degraded trip.
00:06And that's when we realized there was evil.
00:11Catamarca, the body of María Soledad Morales appeared.
00:17It was the first case taken as a femicide, because until that moment the woman was always to blame.
00:24At that moment, I would have preferred that someone had shot me,
00:28but I don't want to see the body of my daughter alive.
00:31They belong to the political power of Catamarca.
00:33Those who killed my daughter want to cover it at all costs.
