Shocking testimonies of people who lived through the horror of torture, executions and death squads. Stories from prisons, torments and torturers throwing prisoners alive out of airplanes are presented in the documentary “The List of Silence”, directed by Nikos Vezyrgiannis and based on Pavlos Nerantzis’s research and screenplay. After long research, the world premiere of the documentary - based on an issue, which still is an “open wound” for the world - will be presented at the Documentary Festival of Thessaloniki.

The “desaparecidos” number thirty thousand, comprising the missing from Videlas junta in Argentina and among them there are Greeks and people of Greek origin. “The List of Silence” brings the names of the Greek origin desaparecidos to light and with them images from the past and the dreams of a whole generation which run the risk of forgetfulness.
