Shadows of Memory - 'Our Disappeared / Nuestros Desaparecidos"

How does Argentina remember the desaparecidos? How do we fully embrace the memory of our disappeared? In this short video essay I explore some of the ways the memories are kept alive -- through marches, remembrances in newspapers, in public school memorials, through art, in a park by the river that became their grave. For Argentina the task of remembering is hard work, but the thousands of disappeared souls deserve no less.
