Event Date

During Argentina`s last dictatorship there were 500 clandestine detention, torture and extermination centers. Many of them are now spaces of memory, devoted to learning and reflecting about the social effects of terror. How could these centers operate in the heart of the city? What could detained-disappeared people hear, and how much did neighbors know about what was taking place there? What should be done with these places today? In a journey through the sites that became the setting for state terrorism, SITES OF MEMORY (2012, 130 min) by documentarian Sebastián Schindel incites us to ponder both everyday life in the cities of the dictatorship and the role of memory today.
