The elusive heart of an era, deciphered through an intimate lens, as seen in the life and tragic end of a young woman from a family deeply entwined with the history of modern Uruguay. Aiming to reconstruct the life journey of Ana Amalia —daughter of Matilde Pacheco and José Batlle y Ordóñez— a group of distinguished researchers, each from their specific discipline, here traces her biography through a meticulous examination of her books, diary, letters and postcards, as well as her familial and social ties, and the dreams cut short by the fatal grip of tuberculosis.
