The 1978 FIFA World Cup rolls into Argentina. A surreal fortnight
ensues. Fans flock to revamped stadia, while just metres away
prisoners cower - hidden in secret torture facilities. As foreign
journalists begin to join the dots, Videla goes into statesman
mode. With the tournament in the balance, the dictator and a
famous friend pay Argentina’s opponents a friendly visit. It will
result in one of the most contentious games in history… A Noiser
production, written by John Bartlett. Many thanks to Edward
Brudney, Robert Cox, Marcela Mora y Araujo, Rhys Richards, Ernesto
Semán. This is Part 3 of 4. Get every episode of Real Dictators a
