English title: All You Need to Make a Movie Is a Gun
In the mid-1970s, the first film students at the University of Córdoba were persecuted and their films destroyed by members of the armed forces. Fifty years later, dozens of film cans were discovered in an old warehouse on the university campus. Among the film reels, mixed in with fiction shorts and hidden under a different name, there is a series of documentary recordings featuring popular demonstrations and scenes of repression from the 1970s.

Their creators are three young filmmakers, two of them French, who abandoned fiction filmmaking to devote themselves to political documentary and revolutionary activism. But the military intervention at the university and the appearance of a strange character linked to the fate of the films reveal to us the abrupt and violent end of the dreams of a generation of filmmakers.
