Caravan of Death (2000)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

“Where is my son? Why don’t they give him back to me?” In 1973, a month after Pinochet seized power in Chile, a helicopter headed north. 4 days later it returned. 71 people were dead. What was the real purpose of the Caravan of Death? Who gave the order? And where are the dead? 27 years later Pinochet is facing trial. Filmed undercover with Judge Juan Guzman as he builds the case against Pinochet, this documentary asks whether Chilean justice will respect the relatives of the executed and disappeared who cannot, and will not, forget them.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
