A large crowd gathered on a Saturday in front of the General Cemetery in Santiago, Chile, to pay tribute to Víctor Jara, a musician who became a national symbol after his hands were broken during the country's turbulent political history.

Attendees of all ages participated in the commemoration by playing guitars, singing in unison, and accompanying the music with clapping and the melody of a flute.
