Those were the days of the "Cold War", as well. Mexico was the "Laboratory" of torture and the techniques of silencing and disappearance applied by the military dictatorships of South America in the 1980s. Sticks, chains, rifles, bullets, abduction, torture, suffocation, disappearance, death and kidnapping of the newborns. That was the Mexican State's response to those who raised their voices for a fairer country. The Wounded Years, the story they always wanted to hide. Using a narrative combination of fiction with documentary, archival footage, animation, and visual and sound recreation, The Wounded Years tells the story of young historian Ana Laura. She gradually discovers her origins as the granddaughter of a baby kidnapped 40 years ago. Tension and danger are growing by the minute. A story based on several real events, narrated in the exhaustive historical research "The Wounded Years", by Fritz Glockner, a real protagonist of these terrible events. Maybe Ana Laura should never have opened Pandora's Box? The Wounded Years, one of the most ambitious productions of recent years in Latin American Public Broadcasting.See less
