Tras un Manto de Neblinas
2023 · Documentary · History · War
The documentary tells the first-person story of what seven veterans experienced during the Malvinas War through their childhood and adolescence, sharing life in a town in the interior of Córdoba. The military service, the landing, the waiting, the cold, the hunger, the fear, the battles, and the return to their village. "I want them to know about my war," says Jorge, taking off his beret as a sign of respect for those who lost their lives in the Malvinas. Today, more than 40 years after the war, they recount what those 74 days were like that marked their lives forever.
