Estela de Carlotto

In the midst of a profound economic, political, and social crisis, in April 1982, the armed forces led by the then de facto president, the alcoholic General Leopoldo Galtieri, launched the reconquest of the Falkland Islands. This marked the beginning of a military adventure in the South Atlantic against a world power that laid bare the errors and horrors of the Argentine military regime. This documentary depicts the final act of a bloody dictatorship.

This documentary focuses on a story that is at the same time all stories: that of Eva, daughter of Juan Carlos Arroyo, one of the 30,000 disappeared detainees of the last dictatorship. Eva is one of the strongest activists in the H.I.J.O.S. organization, and through her and her sister's and mother's stories, the film addresses human rights, clandestinity, uprooting, and exile. The film recovers the dreams of a generation, which resurface in the activism of their sons and daughters, central participants in the demands for memory, truth, and justice—demands that articulate with new social struggles.

The documentary reveals the narcotic effect the '78 World Cup had on Argentine society, when Kempes' goals masked the horrors of the dictatorship. Recalling the attitudes of Adolf Hitler at the 1936 Berlin Olympics and Benito Mussolini during the 1934 World Cup in Italy, the film argues that the 1978 World Cup was "one of the most blatant political exploitations in the history of sport." Through previously unseen testimonies, survivors' accounts, and previously unreleased archival footage, the film portrays the contradictory duality between the euphoria of a people passionate about football and the simultaneous horror suffered by the victims of a bloody dictatorship.

This is the story of an optimistic and amnesiac people who, at the slightest glimmer of light, are prone to forget the pain caused by repeating their mistakes at the polls or by knocking on the doors of the barracks, and rush into hopeful celebration: a dubious World Cup, a war with England, the coming of democracy, etc. And so, between pain and celebration, they await that promised future of abundance.
