School of Assassins
Robert Richter | USA | 1994 | 17 min. | documentary video

Narrated by Susan Sarandon and nominated for an Academy Award, this film is a hard-hitting portrayal of the United States Army School of the Americas. According to the Pentagon, the school's mission is to train the armed forces of Latin America, promote military professionalism, and foster cooperation among multinational military forces. For many people in Latin America and the Caribbean, however, this official propaganda masks a truth that is slowly rising to the surface.
