Hoy fue un gran día - - - today was a big day.

We spent a handful of days this week at a film and photo archive located inside one of Buenos Aires's infamous detention centers, or the places where Los Desaparecidos - The Disappeared - were detained, tortured, and often times killed.  Many of the detention centers inside Buenos Aires have been turned into memorials for the victims, both those deceased and those affected, and some, like the one we were at, are fully functioning centers for research and awareness.

To say it was a sobering location for our work is an understatement - but it was, ultimately, a fruitful endeavor on many fronts.  We left with a bounty of videos and photos that will service as a tremendous asset to our visually-oriented medium.  The things we obtained will really help us establish the who and what of 'La Guerra Sucia' - 'The Dirty War' - and help connect our viewers to the horrors of the past.  What makes the footage especially valuable is the fact that some of it's in color, which is very hard to come by.  The photos above are the stills from some of the footage we obtained.  Sin contexto - without context - they might not do much for you now, but by film's end you will be very familiar with the members of the The Junta - the council - pictured above.

We left the archive around American lunch time- our stomachs growl a lot earlier than most Argentines - and got home just in time to prep for our first official interview.  At around 4PM, we sat down for over two hours with an ex-member of the ERP or Ejército Revolucionario del Pueblo - The People's Army - the same group that Mabel belonged to.  The conversation was informative, passionate, moving and a great launching pad for the next couple of moves on our journey.  We're truly honored to have spent the afternoon with him and can't wait to introduce him to the supporters of Finding Mabel.

Until next time -

And until all these long, wonderful clips are logged and translated -

THE CREW.
