Documentary about internationally-renowned author Ariel Dorfman, the third generation of his family to know exile. His father's leftwing beliefs saw the family uprooted from both Argentina and the US, before settling in Chile.

Peter Raymont journeys with Ariel as he looks back on his life. (Storyville)
