Is it for you?

Who'll love it
If you count yourself among fans of newsroom stories and anyone interested in what war does to people, this one's for you. It's about the digging, and what it costs to get the story. It puts you in the middle of the fighting, and doesn't let you forget the cost.
The mood
Eye-opening.
The pace
Moves through the story clearly, at 1 hr 37 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.

A direct call to take an active stand in defense of human rights, fearlessly denouncing their violation wherever they occur, through the testimonies of several war reporters, brave journalists who, with the most objective view possible, analyze the human condition: David Beriain and Sergio Caro in Afghanistan; Mikel Ayestaran in Iraq; Hernán Zin in the Democratic Republic of Congo; and Gervasio Sánchez in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
