The Names of the Flowers (2019): Cast

During the 50th anniversary of Ernesto “Che” Guevara’s death in Bolivia, Julia, a retired countryside teacher, is initially asked to recount a significant moment from her past. She recalls offering soup to the captured guerrilla in her classroom, a poignant experience where he recited a poem about flowers shortly before his death. However, the invitation for her to share her story is abruptly withdrawn when other women come forward, asserting that they are the true narrators of the "soup and the flower" incident, creating a dispute over a pivotal historical memory.
