About the film
In the middle of an eviction to a community in Paraguay, eleven farmers and six policemen died in the so-called massacre of Curuguaty in 2012. The Lost Voice is a documentary that asks about the recent history of Paraguay from images of a failed fiction and a recording of a real story.
Included in a program of five short films that reflect on the challenges that Latin American girls and adolescents face in their transition to adulthood.
