Hello! Today I'm going to talk about my favorite photography. This photography is from one of my favorite’s documentaries "La ciudad de los fotografos" (the city of photograph) by Sebastian Moreno in 2006. This documentary talks about the military dictatorship in Chile, from the vision of different photograph that protested using his cameras. It’s a beautiful documentary and the photography that most impact me, was this:
"Mi padre. Mi viejo. (...) Después de salir de estar preso, me exigió que le contara, yo no le quería contar, cuando le conté él tuvo ese gesto. Esta foto es eso."
This photograph was took by Luis Navarro (photograph from AFI), one of interviewed of documentary. In the picture show to his father in the exact moment before he relate his experience as missing detainee. Luis was five days detainee but he manage go out with life.
I like very much this photography because is a very emotional picture, although capture a very intimate moment, describe perfectly the pain and frustration of the many people that live as a similar politic situation. The image transmit me a million of different emotions and make me reflect about my life, appreciate and protect to my family, and not be indifferent about the social injustice, especially when it’s about human rights.
