Synopsis
Brazil's decade of military government, its death squads, and its legacy of torture and "disappearances" have had much less attention from the international community in its recent years than have the brutal regimes of some of its neighbors. "Mass Grave" exposes a startling episode from Brazil's dark past--the story of "disappeared" political prisoners who were buried in an illegal mass grave in a public cemetary in Sao Paulo in the 1970s. From the point of view of families of the "disappeared," this investigation unravels the complicated recent political history of Brazil and the curtain of secrecy that surrounds it.
