Atlas de la desaparición

2026 /
83 min /
Spain

After eighty years of silence, new forensic technologies help families reconstruct the fate of their relatives, whose bodies were secretly transferred to their executioner’s mausoleum. Faced with legal and bureaucratic obstacles, the film turns to archives and digital techniques to trace the disappeared to the Valley of the Fallen and recover what repression sought to erase.

Following its premiere at CPH:DOX 2026, Atlas of Disappearance arrives to shed light on the system and architecture that buried more than 30,000 people in the Valley of the Fallen, without their families’ knowledge. Manuel Correa, a member of Forensic Architecture, joins us to analyse this dark episode of our history — a wound that remains open in the country’s memory.
