Directing
In Germán Araujo, director Aldo Novick revives the memory of a journalist who defied censorship during one of Uruguay's darkest periods. Through previously unseen archival footage, testimonies, and music, the film honors the courage of those who reported the truth when it was risky. This powerful documentary is shaping up to be one of the most important Uruguayan film releases of the year.
A documentary born from the letters that the Spanish-Uruguayan singer Manuel Capella sent from his exile in the 70's, and is completed with the testimonies of Uruguayan and foreign artists, friends and journalists.
