"Los desaparecidos" oziroma "izginuli" je evfemizem, ki še danes močno odmeva v Argentini. Pablo Trapero je po resnični zgodbi posnel film o na videz običajni argentinski družini, katere člani so v osemdesetih letih prejšnjega stoletja ugrabljali ljudi.

Na prvi pogled se zdijo Puccii povsem običajna argentinska družina: z očetom Arquimedesom na čelu se vsak večer zberejo za mizo in ob večerji premlevajo dnevne dogodke. Najstarejši sin Alejandro je celo zvezda argentinske ragbi reprezentance. A za to krinko se skriva nekaj povsem drugega. Arquimedes je hladnokrven zločinec, ki skrbno načrtuje ugrabitve številnih ljudi, pri tem pa mu pomaga Alejandro, s katerim si tudi razdelita odkupnine. 

In bolj ko sem bral, bolj sem ugotavljal, da je v srčiki zgodbe odnos med očetom in sinom, Arquimedesom in Alejandrom. Vedel sem, da bo portret razmerja med očetom in sinom preglasil kriminalni primer, zgodovinsko obdobje, ki sem ga osvetljeval. Ta je pogonska sila filma.

'Los desaparecidos' or the 'disappeared' is a euphemism that continues to resonate heavily across Argentina. Pablo Trapero based his film on a true story about a seemingly ordinary Argentinian family in the eighties involved in a series of abductions.

On the surface the Puccios look like most other families. Steely-eyed patriarch Arquimedes presides over a household where his wife, sons, and daughters gather for evening meals and discuss their days. Alejandro, the eldest son, is a famed rugby player on Argentina's national team. But under the surface Arquimedes is a cold-blooded criminal, who plans his kidnaps with meticulous precision. Alejandro starts to collaborate with his father and the two split the ransom money between them. 

And the more I read I found that at the heart of the story was this father-son relationship between Alejandro and Arquimedes. You know, over the criminal case, over the historical period I'd be tackling, above all, I knew there was going to be a portrait of the relationship between a father and a son. That's the motivating engine of the film.
