Hear ye mortals / Yamile Saied Méndez.
In 1976 Rosario, Argentina, brothers Daniel and Adrián Aguirre share a passion for music and a bond as best friends. However, under the authoritarian military government, artists and musicians are considered enemies of the state, even if they're just teenagers playing at home. When one of their songs unexpectedly gains popularity on the radio, Daniel and Adrián, along with their band RÃo Babel--comprised of children of immigrants from Spain, Palestine, and Germany--face a daunting choice.
