The film, which was initially going to be released last October, joins the “audiovisual story” of Kirchnerism that features productions such as “El camino de Santiago” - which reflects the already ruled out forced disappearance of Santiago Maldonado-; "Néstor Kirchner, the movie", about the life of the late ex-President, or "Land scorched", a film by Tristan Bauer that talks about macrista management.

The film, with musician Peteco Carabajal and journalistic production by Celeste del Bianco, seeks to “break that plausible one built by the media machinery” on the figure of Sala, García assured.

“We felt the communicational need to document the context of persecution in which he was, how his most fundamental rights were being curtailed. But we also wanted to tell the work of that leader, woman, originally, kolla, from northern Argentina, who had another credible one built by the media machinery; We had to break that plausibility, ”he said in dialogue with the official agency Télam .

Although she assured that the Tupac Amaru leader was "persecuted by the Mauricio Macri government" , the journalist announced that the film "is not a documentary about 'Innocent Miracle' or 'Guilty Miracle'", but about the effects on her human rights'.

He did not specify if the film mentions the convictions that weigh on Sala, some already ratified by higher courts, such as the 13-year prison sentence for the "Pibes Villeros" case, in which the social leader was found guilty of being the head of a illicit association, in actual competition for fraud to the detriment of the public administration (co-author) and extortion (co-author).

During the process, the diversion of state funds for more than $ 60 million, charged by cooperatives to build social housing, between 2011 and 2015, which were never carried out, was investigated.

García acknowledged that a court order was violated in the recording of the documentary tape . In this sense, he explained that one of the most difficult aspects of the production consisted of being able to get “the voice of Milagro Sala” due to the prohibition of entering the house in which he is detained with any recording device, for which, He confessed, they set up "a whole clandestine registry" that allowed solving the obstacle.
