In 1974, the social activist and community leader from Guerrero, Rosendo Radilla Pacheco, disappeared at a military checkpoint in Mexico. To this day, the case remains unresolved and has become one of the most notorious examples of what went on during the dirty war of the sixties and seventies, when authoritarian regimes attempted to disband those who opposed them. Today, Mexico faces charges of crimes against humanity in the international courts. 12.511 Case Rosendo Radilla Pacheco: An Open Wound in Mexico's Dirty War weaves together the stories of people like Tita, Radilla's own daughter, who continue to fight for truth and justice.
