Children of dictatorship: Families searching for loved ones in Argentina

It’s been more than 30 years since Argentina’s military dictatorship collapsed, but the country is still grappling with the fallout of the regime’s crackdown on political opponents. An estimated 30,000 citizens were killed in the 1970s and 1980s. Many of those victims simply disappeared, and their families are still searching for answers. But the current government is shutting down an investigation unit in charge of finding them, claiming it violates the constitution.
