On August 12, 1963, five young men from the Peronist Resistance stole the curved saber of General José de San Martín from the National Historical Museum. The objective was to revive the militancy of Peronism, which at that time was outlawed. They also intended to take it to the leader of the movement: Juan Domingo Perón, who at that time was in exile in Spain.

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.
