Disappeared

Crónica de una fuga (Chronicle of an escape)

(2006)

A gritty, sometimes excruciating view of existence in a detention center of Argentina's military junta in the late 1970s, based on a book by one of the victims of the state-run kidnapping-and-torture terrorism. It's good to know that no one in the Western Hemisphere is running roughshod over prisoners' rights like this anymore.
