(DESANDAR)
Desandar looks back into the times of the Mexican Revolution, where the role of subversive women was crucial but has been victim of erasure. Women that took part on the Mexican Liberal Party led by the Flores Magon brothers. With little to nonexistent access to the records of such rebellious women, Adorno is set to reconstruct this disruptive part of history and give back the recognition it deserves.
