En el nombre de la hija

Tania Hermida

Ecuador

2009

In «En el nombre de la hija» Tania Hermida tells the story of a nine-year old girl whose name is in dispute. Manuela has been named after her socialist-atheist father, but her catholic-conservative grandmother insists she should carry the name the first daughters of the family have carried for generations: Dolores. The story takes place in a valley in the Ecuadorian Andes, during the summer of 1976. Manuela and her little brother, Camilo, are spending vacations with their cousins and grandparents at the family's farmhouse.
