Description
A man and a woman embrace each other as they mourn the loss of a group of young men who were killed by Contras. They are at a burial site following a funeral procession in their honor that in turn followed after a demonstration in Managua's Plaza 19 de Julio held in their honor. They are surrounded by a crowd of mourners.
