Peace. Justice. Astonishing beauty. Pinochet torture survivors singing to their dead/disappeared loved ones and re-dedicating themselves to justice in the Casa Memoria Jose Domingo CaƱas. During the Pinochet years there were over 1,000 ordinary-looking houses that were in fact torture centres. Throughout Chile. His gang destroyed most of them when he lost power. This one the people saved and now maintain as a memorial to those who suffered there. Desperately moving. Wonderfully inspiring. Beats Santa out every time.
