SONGS OF REPRESSION, dir. Marianne Hougen-Moraga, Estephan
Wagner | Denmark
At
the foot of the Andes Mountains in Chile lies an idyllic German colony.
However, the beauty of the place contains a grim past. In 1961, the German
preacher Paul Schaefer and his congregation moved to Chile with the stated aim
of helping the poor. They established Colonia Dignidad (Colony of Dignity),
which transformed into a closed sect. This film explores how the remaining
residents of the colony deal with 45 years of child abuse, collective beatings
and slave-like living conditions. It also reveals how people in the colony
assisted Pinochet's dictatorship (1973 - 1990) in torturing and killing
political prisoners and burying them in mass graves on their own 16,000 -
hectare land.
