[originally published on Patreon March 20, 2024] I am joined by Rodolfo (from the Bolaño series) to discuss the 2019 Guatemalan film La Llorona, which features a lightly fictionalized account of a Montt stand-in and deals with the psychic and spiritual fallout from La Violencia. We discuss about half of the film's plot which led us to one of the throwaway lines in the film - the question of Guatemalan mineral rights.  Songs: Lonely Surf Guitar by the Safaris Surfin’ Todd by the Burzums
