About El mito
Following the fall of Juan Domingo Perón, this documentary, produced during the Revolución Libertadora, sets out to dismantle the political and symbolic construct of Peronism. Through archival footage and an openly oppositional narrative, the film questions Perón's leadership and the role of Eva Perón, presenting them as the cornerstones of a regime based on manipulation, a cult of personality, and the control of society.
Directed by Revolución Libertadora, El mito leans on a strong ensemble — Juan Domingo Perón, Eva Duarte de Perón — 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 1957.
