(Honoring those who suffered.) The camera pans across the silent, watchful streets of Buenos Aires, heavy with the weight of the regime. A year of terror, of vanishings, of primal fear. The populace lives locked down, treated like cattle in an invisible pen. To step out of line is to invite brutality: simulated drowning, electric currents, a quiet death. An unseen narrator watches the deepening shadow fall over the city. For the moment, you, you are still beyond the immediate reach of the men in uniform.
