EL RATI HORROR SHOW

El Rati Horror Show is a documentary that tells the story of Fernando Ariel Carrera: the case of an ordinary man who was unjustly imprisoned for thirty years – not by mistake, but deliberately – due to tampering of his legal file.

The film takes as a central idea the way in which Fernando Carrera’s legal file was forged: evidence tampering and manipulation at the crime scene, testimony manipulation on behalf of police forces, national media coverage manipulation by Rubén Maugeri, key witness and president of the 34th Police Station Friendship Asociation.
