Posted on: June 5, 2006 | Views: | Comment
This is a documentary film about the life and work of Raymundo Gleyzer, Argentine filmmaker, kidnapped and murdered by that country's military dictatorship in 1976.
Convinced that the cinema is a weapon of counter-information, an instrument for the working class, Raymundo documented the political and sociological situation in Latin America since 1963.
His first films were ethnographic, but always pointing at the social issues. Journalist, photographer, cameraman, his cinema became a strong political and social denounce. Raymundo was a revolutionary, so most of these films were produced in the underground.
