ARGENTINA's STOLEN CHILDREN

‘Jorge was my only son, he meant everything to me. He and his pregnant wife were taken from their home in handcuffs with bags over their heads.’

Delia de Califano from Argentina has never seen her son or daughter-in-law after the event she describes. From 1976 to 1983 Argentina was ruled by the junta. Those who disagreed with the military dictatorship were kidnapped and tortured. Children of opposition members were given away to childless military families.

For more than 30 years Delia hasn’t lost hope to find her grandson. Those women, whose kids were kidnapped back then created a group and became known as mothers of the Plaza de Mayo. Mostly being 80+, they are still looking for their children.

Their stories are in the documentary Argentina’s Stolen Children.
