2012

Documentary about the Rawson Prison, which, starting in the mid-1970s, became a place of confinement for hundreds of political prisoners from across the country. Some of the leaders of the main armed political organizations, such as Montoneros, ERP, and FAR, passed through there. Following the 1976 dictatorship, a systematic plan of physical and psychological destruction against the detainees began to be carried out there, directly or indirectly involving parts of the local community.

MovieDocumentary
The film tells how in 1970 a group of Argentine filmmakers - including Alberto Fischerman, Rafael Filippelli, Julio Ludueña, Miguel Bejo, Jorge Cedrón, Dody Scheuer and Luis Zanger - decided to make a short film each in one night. The occasion is perfect to describe the atmosphere of the '70s, the fever in which militants and publicists lived, the clash between art and politics. Includes fragments of the films The Players vs. Ángeles Caídos (Fischerman, 1969), Shadows (John Cassavetes, 1959), Made in U.S.A. (Jean-Luc Godard, 1966), L'eclisse (Michelangelo Antonioni, 1962), The Hour of the Furnaces (Pino Solanas & Octavio Getino, 1968), Tire dié (Fernando Birri, 1960), Alianza para el progreso (Ludueña, 1971), La civilización está haciendo masa y no deja oír (Ludueña, 1974) and La pieza de Franz (Fischerman, 1974).
