Identidad follows the life of Daniel Santucho Navajas, who was born in detention during Argentina’s military dictatorship and abducted at birth. In 2023, the Abuelas of the Plaza de Mayo traced him through DNA matching, allowing him to uncover what had happened to him and to meet his biological family. His story reflects the fate of the children stolen during the dictatorship and underscores the importance of memory and justice, as well as the fundamental right to identity in the face of crimes committed by the state.
