Heroes presents dramatised stories of brave women who have faced sexual assault and had the courage to fight back.

When her mistress brings on another servant to help with the chores, a bitter and introverted maid wreaks havoc on the household.

Originally intended to be Raúl Ruiz’s debut feature in 1967, this experimental drama was posthumously revived by Valeria Sarmiento through editing and dialogue reconstruction. The melancholic and the grotesque become strange bedfellows, as a haunted widower sinks into a whirlpool of hallucinations.
