When thousands of political opponents disappeared in the 1970s, relatives were left distraught. "We only want to know where our children are!" - a woman cries in a crowded street rally where sobbing women hold up pictures of the disappeared. Around 5000 were taken to 'ESMA' - a secret prison where torture and murder were common crimes. Yet it' s only recently that the theft of children and babies of pregnant captives has come to light: "We never imagined this was a systematic plan, executed in a perverse manner", says Estella of the 'Grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo'. They work to recover lost children like Huan, who thinks the man who raised him beat him because "every time he looked at me he would revisit the horror of his crime". He now fights for DNA testing to become compulsory. The children of wealthy media magnate Ernestina Herrera de Noble, may not wish to take part in the inquiry, but "the justice system is obliged to solve the crime". And for the lucky ones who still have relatives alive, reunion after 32 years is the most powerful revelation of an unbreakable bond: "it was almost the most beautiful feeling I've ever had in my life".

Why did they do it?
The disappearing of the babies? I think it was just a consequence and because they were sick and because at the time they had their power to do whatever they wanted. Their main goal was to end "communism" and with that's excuse and with the support of the United States they slaughtered a lot of innocent people and the stolen babies were just a mere consequence.
To stop Communism
But they end up kidnapped babies and killing innocent people in cross fire
Their goal was to eliminate the left. They believed that subversive parents would produce subversive children. Therefore the parents were murdered and the children were given to conservative families to be raised with a different identity
Search plan condor
Viva el comandante Videla, siempre en nuestros corazones de salvar a la patria Argentina contra las guerrillas zurdas que nos querían llevar a ser como Cuba!!!
I am just glad that the brave Argentinian military were defeated by the UK and this immoral scum were shown to not be quite as brave when fighting real soldiers and not pregnant girls.
No fueron 30.000
No one will ever know for certain how many it was.
30,000 probably is too high. 9000 is definitely too low.
