Imagine discovering that your surname, first name and date of birth are all lies? That your family is not your real family? Hundreds of Argentineans born during the dictatorship of General Videla, from 1976 to 1983, have faced this horrifying discovery. FRANCE 24 went to meet them.
In Argentina, during the dark days of the dictatorship, almost 500 babies were forcibly taken by the military junta from their parents, who were left-wing dissidents opposed to the regime.
The parents were tortured and often executed.
The young mothers, accused of "being active militants of the machinery of terrorism", in the words of the dictator Videla, were killed or thrown into the sea from a military plane.
According to human rights campaigners, around 30,000 dissidents were killed or disappeared during the junta’s rule from 1976 to 1983.
Newborns, who were often born in jail or in clandestine maternity wards, were given as spoils of war to military families or those close to the regime. Once adopted, they were given a new name and a new date of birth: a false identity.
In 1983, as the dictatorship came to an end and a civilian government was democratically elected, one group of women, "the Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo", actively set out to find their missing grandchildren.
Today, forty years after the 1976 coup that brought the junta to power, and thanks to a monumental investigation, witness testimonies and DNA tests, 119 people have discovered their real identity and biological families.
In FRANCE 24's documentary, our reporter Bertrand Devé went to meet these men and women who have discovered the truth of their past, with some of them finding out the horror of who their "adoptive" parents really were.
We joined them on their journey to reconnect with their roots and rebuild their identities.

The strength of these grandmothers is incredible. Never forget.
It is disrespectful to call it "dirty war" just repulsive
More than 30000 people were kidnapped, tortured and killed !!! I believe there are way more than 500 babies/children stolen. The number is in the thousands at least. Many will never find out whether they are a stolen baby or not. Majority can be found in Spain, Italy and Uruguay.
I wish they were 30000....
neither 30,000 nor innocent
@@cjess6265 what exactly do you mean by saying they weren't innocent?
@@oliviatroilo1258 He's either a troll or a fascist.
@@oliviatroilo1258were 6400, almost all of them members of terrorists organizations.
If you notice one thing in common amongst the people who were murdered is that the majority were young, most of them in their twenties to mid thirties. They went after young people most brutally.
correct...but not exclusively...my uncle was lucky he wasn't killed in Bs As like two other Uruguayan politicians whom he met at the park daily. They were exiled in Bs As and had to go hiding until Cuba accepted them. They were much older.
They went after communists and people who were associated with their ideals
Because young people are not bound by their wealth and ideologically more extreme.
The generic translation just doesn't do justice to the cause. The found and restored grandchildren are saying "appropiators", which is a more accurate term for what the military junta and its collaborators did, because they did not go through a legal process to take away these children from perfectly fit parents to give them to regimen-akin families. Words are important for accurate representation.

Heartbreaking, so many bodies were never recovered... Amazing material shared in this video.
The Documentary was saying they were taking Victims for a boat ride tied up and dumped overboard during to cover of darkness
Wow. I just learned of this. What an experience these children went through. My hat goes off to the grandmothers who never gave up. I truly salute them. Their love & fight never ended. I pray for those other families of the 500 who never found out the truth. Rest In Peace to all the mothers and fathers murdered. Thankfully Argentina has ratified many treaties, unlike the U.S. They are on the right track.
Most were terrorist communist ….try to sera h well
1978 world cup was won in argentina the host nation while the players were celebrating people were getting tortured .ENGLAND
They was members of terrorists organizations, not only "people".
Very sad and its morally repulsive.
When I was between 14 & 17 I read a book called The Children of the Gestapo, like in this story some of the children stolen were tracked down by their grandparents. I honestly don't know how they did it considering the mess that Europe was in after World War 2.
Never forget
Never Forget
I thought this was an impressive piece of film-making; chapeau!
En esos tiempos mi abuelo vio como gente era fusilada
Several years ago there was a Documentary of this on TV
Wow!! I don't even know what to say at all..
First of all that's not true: Justice has made clear in the historic Trial of the Juntas that this was a systematic plan to establish the neoliberal economic model. But in case you were right: Why don't they just take them to court, in a fair trial, with a judge, the right to defend themselves, a prosecutor, evidence and witnesses if they were 'terrorists' or criminals instead of abducting (most of them had 15-18 years old), torture, rape, and put them to sleep before throwing them from airplanes? Why do they need to steal their child and delete their identities? The 'people' you defend weren't human beings, they were monsters.
***** I have to agree with Matyas Mon. Why not go through the legal system if they feel they did some type of crime? You don't just take someone out, accuse them with no evidence and kill them by torture.
After all was said and done, communism was defeated.
@@Swnsasy they did...
It's called corrupted government
It's not like it hasn't happened before...
@@Matyasmonthey didnt take to,court cause they were dealing with the extreme right comunist and the memtality was to overthrown the military one way or other so junta prevented the country to become a cuba.the other reason was that general peron nefore die ordered to fight and exterminate the guerrilla communist then when he died his second wife isabel signed a decree to exterminate them….
This started before junta took over the pinky house
La Junta was a continuation of Hitlers vision but set in South America and focused on left wing people. Can you imagine if Trump starts something similar.
Trump was trained by the Jesuits so we'll see if he is a true coadjutor.
La junta has financied for the CIA
They are doing it now with trans people, down to trying to take children away from their loving families
i have to say...as argentinean that it was NOT a war...
denmark, uk, ireland, norway, sweden same now 2
Automotores and la escuelita (de la Armada) were terrible.
Porque?
I want to remind people that this happened also in Chile, Brazil, Paraguay etc Peron, Pinochet are no different from Hitler
and Uruguay where they had the largest number of political prisoners per capita in the world...nice guiness record...irony.
Perón was democratic president don’t misinformed
Perón ???
I mean, usually peronists were the main victims of the dictatorship
@@juanaabadiebottcher5508 Really? Perón expelled Montoneros...The Triple A is a peronista organization. Stop spreading lies... The decree of "extermination" came from the Peronista movement... Peronistas love to suffer from amnesia.
❤
Maybe Snooki is a stolen child from Chile?
Ive thought about this. No joke.
I thought that too❤
Se veia prometedor el futuro en este video..
