00:00:07.424 --> 00:00:12.387
This series is based on real life stories
occurred in Chile during the civil-military dictatorship
00:00:12.387 --> 00:00:18.309
supported in the Rettig report, in judicial documents
and in the testimonies of relatives of Disappeared Detainees.
00:00:19.310 --> 00:00:22.022
My brother Claudio had entered
to the Military School
00:00:22.022 --> 00:00:23.314
by family tradition.
00:00:23.314 --> 00:00:28.486
My father, my cousins, my grandparents,
we all had, in one way or another,
00:00:28.486 --> 00:00:30.488
link with the armed forces.
00:00:31.698 --> 00:00:36.119
But he did not belong to that place,
He was an idealistic and sensitive young man.
00:00:36.619 --> 00:00:39.497
Withdraw from the institution
to study sociology
00:00:39.497 --> 00:00:42.000
It was a shock for my parents.
00:00:43.001 --> 00:00:46.588
For the military family to leave
of the institution was
00:00:46.588 --> 00:00:49.299
an act of unforgivable betrayal.
00:00:49.507 --> 00:00:53.887
An act that years later
would condemn him forever.
00:01:12.822 --> 00:01:14.991
THE SUSPENDED MOURNING
00:01:15.492 --> 00:01:19.954
That afternoon, Claudio had gone to take the
té to the house of Jaime Robotham,
00:01:19.954 --> 00:01:21.414
his lifelong friend.
00:01:21.414 --> 00:01:23.416
-No, it\'s not the same anymore
without Caszely,
00:01:23.416 --> 00:01:25.210
Now they need to sell El Chamaco.
00:01:25.210 --> 00:01:27.921
-No, we would be screwed
-I don\'t even want to imagine it
00:01:28.088 --> 00:01:29.714
We barely used to see Claudio
00:01:29.714 --> 00:01:33.510
-Claudito, and how are your parents doing?
-Good auntie, at the house
00:01:33.510 --> 00:01:36.805
He had gone to live by him self just because
He didn\'t want to depend on my parents anymore,
00:01:36.805 --> 00:01:39.307
but that night we would
all get together to dinner.
00:01:39.307 --> 00:01:41.726
-What do you mean you\'re taking the
kids to your mama\'s?
00:01:41.726 --> 00:01:43.686
You know what don\'t fuck with me.
No. don\'t fuck with me
00:01:44.312 --> 00:01:46.523
Wait for me there, I\'ll go there,
I\'m going there, did you hear me?
00:01:46.523 --> 00:01:47.899
Do not raise your voice at me!
00:01:48.024 --> 00:01:49.400
It was the last day of the year.
00:01:49.400 --> 00:01:52.195
-I\'m going to stay with the
kids. This shit is over, bye.
00:01:52.195 --> 00:01:54.906
And Fernando Lauriani,
agent of the DINA,
00:01:54.906 --> 00:01:57.992
I wanted to go home early
like all Chileans.
00:01:58.952 --> 00:02:00.787
-Let your lady leave already.
00:02:00.995 --> 00:02:03.998
See you are the only sucker
that has not met the goals.
00:02:04.999 --> 00:02:07.001
Ok, go to work to the street
you piece of shit
00:02:08.002 --> 00:02:09.003
Go!
00:02:15.885 --> 00:02:17.512
-Hey, Claudio, so the other day
you were with
00:02:17.512 --> 00:02:21.307
People liked to talk
with my brother, me too.
00:02:21.307 --> 00:02:24.394
It was one of those people
who did not see evil in the other,
00:02:24.394 --> 00:02:27.689
one of those that fill
the spaces with joy.
00:02:27.689 --> 00:02:29.023
-These fuckers screwed us up again
00:02:30.817 --> 00:02:35.488
And you, you\'re done motherfucker, done
00:02:38.491 --> 00:02:41.494
Luck made that Lauriani could\'t find
what He was looking for.
00:02:43.705 --> 00:02:46.708
And that my brother turned
that street at the same time.
00:02:53.590 --> 00:02:57.010
Lauriani had been a companion of
my brother in military school.
00:03:03.516 --> 00:03:05.393
They were not looking for Claudio,
00:03:05.393 --> 00:03:09.689
but my brother became
currency, the perfect excuse.
00:03:09.689 --> 00:03:13.484
In a number more to achieve
Someone else\'s year-end goal.
00:03:19.991 --> 00:03:23.786
What was Claudio\'s fault for not
wanting to pursue a military career?
00:03:25.121 --> 00:03:29.000
What was Jaime\'s fault to be
walking with my brother that day?
00:03:38.218 --> 00:03:41.095
The search did not help us,
the prayers
00:03:41.095 --> 00:03:44.015
and to have contacts
in the armed forces.
00:03:47.810 --> 00:03:50.188
My brother was
arrested and disappeared
00:03:50.188 --> 00:03:53.816
by the same institution from
which we felt part.
00:03:57.487 --> 00:03:59.489
Claudio Thauby, 24 years old
00:03:59.489 --> 00:04:01.491
arrested and disappeared
00:04:01.491 --> 00:04:03.493
December 31, 1974
00:04:03.993 --> 00:04:05.703
Jaime Robotham, 23 years old
00:04:05.703 --> 00:04:07.288
arrested and disappeared
00:04:07.288 --> 00:04:09.999
December 31, 1974
