About Semillas de utopía
This documentary focuses on a story that is at the same time all stories: that of Eva, daughter of Juan Carlos Arroyo, one of the 30,000 disappeared detainees of the last dictatorship. Eva is one of the strongest activists in the H.I.J.O.S. organization, and through her and her sister's and mother's stories, the film addresses human rights, clandestinity, uprooting, and exile. The film recovers the dreams of a generation, which resurface in the activism of their sons and daughters, central participants in the demands for memory, truth, and justice—demands that articulate with new social struggles.
Directed by Rodolfo Colombara, Emanuela Peyretti, Semillas de utopía leans on a strong ensemble — Estela de Carlotto, Hebe Pastor de Bonafini, Nadia Ferrante — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2006.
