Synopsis

This documentary is about the shooting of 12 young militants of the MIR, among them the leader of that group, Fernando Krauss Iturra, on October 3 and 4, 1973, in the city of Valdivia, after the passage of the so-called “Caravan of Death” in revenge for having dared to help the peasants to recover their land, once usurped by the landowners of the Valdivia area.
