Nicolás Trotta
In his bright twilight, José “Pepe” Mujica has decided to recount his life as a guerrilla and president, as a childless husband and countryman, as a global leader and iconic leftist, in a masterful conversation with Nicolás Trotta
Conversations are always dangerous territory: enthusiasm, memory and forgetfulness, truth and fallacy, discretion and self-praise frequent them. Not so in Mujica by Pepe. Questions and answers that do not conform to conventions or circumstantial words. There is no tribute to innocence or to the implied. The experience of a life appears, expressed with abundant sincerity without vain rhetoric or pompous patriotism
The figure of Mujica is strengthened in the intimacy achieved by Trotta: years of change and at the same time of permanence. The assumption of a life and a historical tradition understood. Political decisions, revealing episodes, friendships and travels among many of the visible themes that convey fleeting images of more than eight decades of life. Far from the melancholy of a supposedly better past, the conversation between Mujica and Trotta is also a deep reflection on the world they live in and the Latin America in which they act. Its chronic ailments, such as inequality and lack of integration, but also its urgent agenda and hope for change.
