En 1974, Rosendo Radilla Pacheco desapareció en un retén militar en México. Destacado líder comunitario, luchó por mejorar la salud y educación en Guerrero - un estado históricamente castigado y desatendido por las autoridades.
Décadas más tarde, este caso no resuelto llegó a las cortes internacionales y resulta paradigmático de las acciones gubernamentales de la guerra sucia - un período en los 60’s y 70’s en que los regímenes utilizaron la fuerza militar para aplastar movimientos de la oposicion. Actualmente, México enfrenta cargos por crímenes de lesa humanidad.
El video cuenta la historia de la hija de Radilla, Tita, y la de muchas otras familias de desaparecidos. Ellos nos muestran cómo la búsqueda de la verdad sobre el pasado fortalece la justicia en el futuro.
