Hispanic Film Festival’s fourth film: ‘Clandestine Childhood’
Posted by Peter Ehrhard
The Missouri S&T Hispanic Film Festival presents “Niñez clandestina,” (Clandestine Childhood) at 7 p.m. Friday, April 3, in Room 138 Castleman Hall. The event is free and open to the public.
The film is based on the director’s own tragic early life in Argentina in 1979. After years of exile, 12-year-old Juan and his family return to Argentina under false identities. Juan’s parents are members of an organization fighting the country’s military dictatorship, and because of their political activities they are tracked down relentlessly, under constant threat of capture or death.
For more information about the film or the series, contact Dr. Jorge Porcel, assistant professor of Spanish at Missouri S&T.
