Mercury is a protagonist in this story, we find its traces in the bodies and the territory, mercury arrives through mining in the 70s and enters all spaces of everyday life, it gets into rivers, houses, pots and kitchens, in pregnant women and through food it reaches the territory of the uterus. With these changes in territorial dynamics we see the changes in pregnancies, care practices and what it means to be a mother.
