Argentinian DNA: The Fracture

Argentina’s violent past feeds left-right political battle

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.

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