Madres Coraje. Madres de la Plaza de Mayo

Directed by Emilio Cartoy Díaz

It happened on the last Thursday of April 1977. Tired of waiting in long lines to find out the fate of their missing children and hearing mocking comments, the Mothers began their first lap around Plaza de Mayo, the very gateway to power. There, the symbol was born: the white scarf draped over the heads of rebel mothers, mothers of rebel sons.
