The child from Maguey. On his 10th birthday, Danilo received a command. He had to transmit an important message to Marcial; a slippery FMLN guerrilla man. With a few cents in his pocket and; separated from what it had been his world until then, he would cross El Salvador seeing all the franks of the mountains and the Revolution too. With the innocent but fearful look of a child, we will see how with the passing of the years the mother country with big eyes will become a cemetery of broken illusions before the world. This is the story of a child and a small country summarized in the guerrilla canticle which absorbs these pages: "Go on man from Salvador, because there is no small bird which stops its flying when it starts to fly".
