Guatemala is riveted on the trial of the military officers who started the civil war. Ernesto, a young anthropologist, identifies people who have gone missing. Through an old lady’s story, Ernesto thinks he has found a lead that will allow him to find his father, who disappeared during the war.
César Díaz won the Golden Camera in Cannes with this personal first feature on the traumatic past of his native country. A heartfelt story tackling the Guatemalan genocide that killed thousands of indigenous people in the early 1980s, Our Mothers is written and directed with clarity and conscience.
