Written by Marcelo Slavich and Walter Slavich and directed by Alberto Lecchi and Jorge Nisco, the series is set in Buenos Aires and centers around a killer's revenge plot carried out on the people involved with the death of four high-school students during a hostage-situation gone bad, five years before. The show's two main characters are: Renzo Márquez, ex-detective (played by Julio Chávez) and Dr. Laura Santini, psychiatrist (played by Paola Krum). To add a further twist to this whodunit, Márquez and Santini are ex-lovers. In the second half of the series, Renzo Marquez is aided by a homicide detective Marina (portrayed by Cecilia Roth), who herself is held hostage by Bruno Costas, the series' murderer. During her stay with the psychopathic murderer, she is forced to kill her mother who left her family for another man, causing the detective's father to commit suicide. Her troubling childhood has led Marina to seek thrills by playing high-stakes Russian Roulette. As bodies of her defeated adversaries surface in Buenos Aires, she is assigned to the case.

WPR: Hmm, I'll have to look at that Thomas Hood poem.
But, as I was saying, in political poetry of the retrospective kind, at its best, as in "Epitafios" {1936) by the Greek poet Yannis Ritsos [1909-1990], a silenced history may, through poetry, come alive again to alter both the present and the future.
And sometimes, of course, history used as analogy is both a potent and a prudent way to critique contemporary conditions too repressive to address head-on.
