From 1980 to 1992 about 75,000 women, men and children died and disappeared during El Salvador’s civil war.
The film follows Pro-Búsqueda investigator, Margarita Zamora, as she searches the countryside asking eyewitnesses to recall what they remember from war times.
Their efforts to find their family members are challenged by the lack of access to Salvadoran military war archives.
