The recent past in the Southern Cone has been represented in the cinema from various edges. In Uruguay in recent years, stories of women survivors of the dictatorship have emerged in dialogue, and also in tension, with the hegemonic male and masculinizing story. These include some testimonies of women who, in different formats, began to narrate their experiences of captivity and the story from “the feminine”. Little by little, and at the same time that was happening in Argentina and Chile, the different forms of sexual violence to which political prisoners had been subjected began to be realized.

With the interest of focusing on production as an agent of meaning and as a political intervention, this article analyze the film Migas de Pan (Manane Rodríguez, 2016), based on the story of Liliana Pereira, former political prisoner of the last dictatorship Uruguayan (1973-1985). We also propose to reflect on the meanings and consequences of the irruption of these feminine stories in the memories of repression in Uruguay.

Keywords : Migas de Pan; Uruguayan dictatorship (1973-1985); Women; memories; sexual violence.
