18 minutes that will haunt you longer than most 3-hour epics.
As an act of reparation and remembrance, victims and survivors of state terrorism recount how the clandestine detention center operated at the 4th Police Station in the city of Santa Fe during Argentina’s last civil-military dictatorship. Those who were detained there recount how, at that police station, the provincial police tortured, raped, murdered, and disappeared young people who had been abducted during illegal operations carried out in the city, in surrounding areas, and in northern Santa Fe.
