Machi - Following the Ninth interviewee, Machi, shares his account of the resistance as a revolutionary fighter against the 1973 Pinochet dictatorship.

He recalls the importance of Beethoven's 9th symphony as a song of protest and solidarity during the dictatorship. Machi is a successful doctor and lives his life as a barefoot advocate in the Southern city of Puerto Montt, Chile.
