La Gorgona Historias Fugadas

★ 5.0/10•2013•Documentary

The stories told in this documentary span the twenty-five years of existence of the now-defunct La Gorgona prison, located on the island of the same name. Thus, confinement, violence, and isolation gave rise to many escape attempts, but few were successful. Through interviews with individuals who experienced these events firsthand, the use of animated reenactments, and the emphasis on the power of nature, this work visually reproduces journalist Silvia Luz Gutiérrez's investigation into the mysteries surrounding various characters and their different fates.
