Argentina’s violent past feeds left-right political battle

Get short URL

Argentinians take politics as seriously as football, and past left-right conflicts are still dividing their society. RTD correspondent Francisco Guaita hears stories that challenge both camps from the grown sons of the victims of the country's violent 60s and 70s.

Crowd waving flags in a hall at a political rally. Still taken from RTD documentary Argentinian DNA: The Fracture.

Argentinians are passionate about politics but they are bitterly divided by the violence of the past.
