Documentary
Audiovisual experiment, on the role of photography and its authors, during the last civic-military dictatorship in Argentina. A documentary that makes clear the complicity of the hegemonic media with the military government and the fundamental role played by the militants, in this case photographers, to document what was really happening in Argentina during the period 1976/1983.
