RESISTENZA - Stories of Argentine Exiles in Rome

RESISTENZA traces the stories of men and women who managed to escape from Argentina following the military coup d’état in 1976 and made their way to Rome, where they staged heroic actions of protest with what little resources they had as they sought to gain visibility for the tragedy that was taking place in Argentina.
