In 1983, a group of 154 children aged 3 to 17 years old traveled alone to Montevideo from Europe. They were the children of political exiles from Uruguay, who, unable to return themselves, had sent their children to meet relatives and to see their home country. For the children, the trip marked the development of their identities. Today, six of them recall that day when a crowd welcomed them with the song “Your Parents Will Come Back.”
