Summary |
From Executive Producer Steven Spielberg comes an inspiring documentary that sheds light on a forgotten massacre during Guatemala's civil war. Nearly 30 years later, a forensic scientist and prosecutor help bring justice to those responsible... by finding the missing boy named Oscar, a boy who survived the massacre's horror - only to be raised by one of the soldiers who killed his family. Winner of the Viva El Cine - Audience Award at the **Mill Valley Film Festival**. Winner of Best Documentary, Best Director, and Best Editing at the **Boston Film Festival**. *"A genuinely inspiring story of courage in the face of atrocity, impunity, and institutionalized inhumanity." - Matthew Lickona, **San Diego Reader*** *"The barbarity described in FINDING OSCAR is stomach-turning, but moments of courage still shine through in this unsettling yet vital documentary." - Ken Jaworowski, **The New York Times*** |
