Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Rolf returns to South America to cover the escalating guerilla warfare. Señor Aravena asks him to re-establish contact with Naranjo, now known as Comandante Rogelio. Naranjo oversees the guerilla camp in the mountains, earning the respect and loyalty of his recruits. Rolf tracks down Naranjo through El Negro, and Naranjo agrees to let him film the guerillas. Rolf is blindfolded and taken to the guerilla camp in the mountains, where he lives with Naranjo and his men. Rolf shoots “the only existing [. . . ] film on the guerilla movement of the period before defeat ended the revolutionary dream” (271). He grows to respect Naranjo’s steadfast and courageous leadership. The two emerge from the experience as true friends.
Knowing that his film could endanger the guerillas by exposing their location and plans, Rolf places it in a locked suitcase, which he delivers to La Colonia. Uncle Rupert hides the suitcase under his floorboards.
Eva continues to work at the uniform factory, which is regularly visited by Colonel Tolomeo Rodríguez. Rodríguez notices Eva during one of his inspections and passes her a note asking her to dinner. Eva ignores him, torn between fear and attraction to the man, whose brutal reputation precedes him.
