The Shout
October 2: not forgotten
Directed by Leobardo López Aretche
Produced by UNAM, Centro Universitario de Estudios Cinematográficos (CUEC)
A harrowing historical document of state violence against student protesters, told through recovered footage that bears witness to both brutality and the courage of those who dared to record it.
In the summer of revolt 1968, student Leobardo López Aretche captured the protests in Mexico City, and the state’s brutal response, up close – and like many of his subjects and fellow comrades, would pay a high price for his audacity. Fifty years later, his movie is no longer a secret.
