Three decades after an Argentine military dictatorship “disappeared” 30,000 citizens for political subversion, the abuelas of Plaza de Mayo still search for the children of their pregnant daughters, long since killed. A startlingly beautiful and moving tapestry illustrates the testimony of four abuelas who recount the pain of their loss and an unremitting tenacity to be reunited with their families. Eli Horwatt
