The Crisis Caused 2 New Deaths 2006

Mass media in the Avellaneda Massacre

Directed by Patricio Escobar

What happened, really, on June 26th, 2002 at the Pueyrredón Bridge cut? How do the newsrooms of the main newspapers in the country work? Why didn't the media publish the photographic sequence after the repression? How far does journalists' responsibility go? Through these questions, the film reconstructs and analyzes the events that occurred in the Avellaneda Massacre, the government's political bosses, and the documentation of the information by the mainstream media.
