Après la bataille d’Alger, la France et son armée ont exporté, en véritables experts, les méthodes de lutte anti-subversive en Amérique latine et aux États-Unis dans les années 60. Après plus d’une année d’enquête en Argentine, au Chili, au Brésil, aux États-Unis et en France, la réalisatrice a recueilli, parfois sous couvert de caméra cachée, de conversations enregistrées, les témoignages exclusifs des principaux protagonistes. Du général Aussaresses à l'ancien ministre des Armées Pierre Messmer, en passant par le général Reynaldo Bignone (chef de la junte militaire en Argentine de 1982 à 1984), le général Albano Harguindéguy , le général Manuel Contreras, et les généraux John Johns et Carl Bernard, cette enquête nous livre une réalité occultée du pays des Droits de l'Homme.
