Report on Brazil: Torture

Chris Marker’s film interweaves the narratives of the Brazilian revolutionaries who faced the oppression of the dictatorship and those who took part in the kidnapping of the US ambassador in 1969. Through interviews, he reveals their terrible experiences and the demands made.

Tupamaros

The film focuses on the Uruguayan urban left-wing guerrillas, the so-called Tupamaros, and was filmed at the height of their operation and within their members — the filming was clandestine and carried out by various people who didn’t know the real purpose of the film, which shows the history of the struggle and the desperation that led to the guerrillas’ operationalisation.
