Margaret Thatcher, première et unique femme Premier ministre du Royaume-Uni (de 1979 à 1990), autrefois capable de diriger le royaume d’une main de fer, vit désormais paisiblement sa retraite imposée à Londres. Âgée de plus de 80 ans, elle est rattrapée par les souvenirs. De l’épicerie familiale à l’arrivée au 10 Downing Street, de succès en échecs politiques, de sacrifices consentis en trahisons subies, elle a exercé le pouvoir avec le soutien constant de son mari Denis aujourd’hui disparu, et a réussi à se faire respecter en abolissant toutes les barrières liées à son sexe et à son rang. Entre passé et présent, ce parcours intime est un nouveau combat pour cette femme aussi bien adulée que détestée.

Based on actual accounts, this film portrays the days and hours before and during the invasion of the Falkland Islands by Argentina, which eventually lead to the Falklands War. As the Argentine forces land on the main island and make their way towards Government House, the handful of British defenders batten down the hatches and prepare to defend the Governor Rex Hunt, his family and their fellow islanders from the invaders.

Appelés du contingent ou militaires de carrière, ils avaient la vingtaine à peine lorsque leurs deux pays sont entrés en guerre. Certains ont tué, tous ont vu la mort de près. Aujourd'hui quinquagénaires, Marcelo, Jim et les autres mettent des mots sur ce fragment de leur histoire qui ne les a jamais quittés, sur les fantômes qui continuent de les hanter. Chacun à leur tour sur un fond blanc, réunis dans un bâtiment industriel désaffecté, sur le terrain de leurs anciens accrochages avec l'ennemi, en treillis ou en maillot de bain, ensemble face aux enfants d'une classe, ils revivent "leur" guerre, en rejouent les gestes et les émotions. Après avoir exploré dans un précédent travail les séquelles de la dictature argentine ("Ma vie après"), Lola Arias a inscrit cet exercice de libération de la parole dans le cadre d'un projet multimédia englobant une pièce de théâtre ("Minefield"), une installation vidéo ("Veterans"), ainsi qu'un livre ("Campo minado/Minefield"). Une expérience vibrante.

April 9, 1984

The time is the summer of 1982, and the Falklands war is at hand when the young "Argie" follows a British woman home and is stopped from raping her only because she starts to speak to him in Spanish, soon they enter into an ambivalent relationship, undecided as to whether they love or hate each other, or both. They end up on the streets when she is evicted and life becomes even less stable.

A powerful Argentine political film stands on the figure of an outsider intellectual, Sebreli, but manages to transcend it, he becomes a touchstone to go through Argentina and its dilemmas, through this country that is proud of almost everything it should be ashamed of. From national icons like Gardel, Evita, Che, and Maradona the film dialogs with recent Argentine history and it does so with extraordinary energy, supported by a rarely seen use of all kinds of archive material in an almost Dionysian state of sampleadelia. The film arrives to a surprising reflection on nationalism, demagogic governments and delusions of unanimity; problems that are common to emerging societies that cannot find their ways to a freer and more egalitarian society.

The Battle of the Falklands, between a Royal Navy task force and five German cruisers, was one of the most dramatic and bloodiest sea conflicts of World War I. When the smoke cleared, four of the German ships had sunk, including the flagship and pride of the German fleet, the SMS Scharnhorst. For decades, none of the downed vessels were ever found. Now, more than 100 years later, maritime archaeologist Mensun Bound and his team are searching for the ships and the secrets they hold. It's a race against time and the raging South Atlantic Ocean.
