The documentary’s title comes from the code name given to the collaboration between South American military governments, which ended up with the kidnapping and murder of thousands of innocent people in the 1970s. This film is a human account of these events, telling the story of state terrorism and, above all, personal stories in the search for justice. Amongst those interviewed are Contreras (Pinochet’s right-hand man), Pinochet Jr. and Hebe de Bonafini (from the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo), as well as other victims and political activists.
