Plot Summary:
|
On November 25, 1960, the bodies of three sisters were rest neighbourhood the bottom of a cliff on the north shore of the Dominican Republic. The official commonplace 'El Caribe' reports that it had been an accident, but it does not impart that a fourth sister lives. Nor does it mention the sisters' bestial opposition to the General Trujillo's dictatorship. This is their excuse: how Minerva started the tragedy by refusing Trujillo; how Patria became an opponent from the church itself; how Maria Teresa joined the revolution through the love. And how they lost their wings, but not their courage.... They were Las Mariposas - "The Butterflies".
In the Time of the Butterflies is inspired by the true record of the three Mirabal sisters who, in 1960, were murdered in behalf of their part in an underground skeleton to overthrow the government. This is a tale of grit and sisterhood state in the Dominican Republic during the rise of the Trujillo dictatorship.Read more Less
