his native spain a new documentary produced by oscar winning pedro almodovar about the legacy of franco including his eugenics program and his support from washington is now one spain's most prodigious film award it will be on u.k. channel b.b.c. 4 today and at its heart is an amnesty law nicknamed the pact of forgetting the film's co director robert joins me now from a welcome do going on the ground water an amazing film it is it's already won the award the documentary film award in spain what is the pact of forgetting is featured in the silence of others thank you so much for having me the pack to forgetting is a pact that was formed at the end of spain's dictatorship so spain had dictator franco for 40 years after he died in 1977 an amnesty law was passed and that law not only helped political prisoners co-chair who had been fighting for democracy but also included a clause that said political crimes committed by the state during the franco dictatorship would not be prosecuted and that became a bigger pact of forgetting where the crimes that took place during the franco dictatorship

in the franco dictatorship would not be prosecuted and that became a bigger impact of forgetting where the crimes that took place during the franco dictatorship to this day have still not been investigated and the gospel has been that it's best that the past be forgotten now it's stunningly short but there are some vox pops in it of young people in the capital for spain us to talk to it's not only the pact of forgetting in terms of the amnesty for those who committed crimes during the british american backed dictatorship of general franco it's an added inference on education itself when people young people in spain watching this film it may be the 1st time they're hearing of the crimes that were committed in their country many many people if their families were not in some way touched by the crimes that took place don't know or they think that this is the past this is something from 80 years ago and part of the purpose of the film was to show actually some of the suffering continues there's still families fighting to get more than 114000 bodies out of mass graves there are still people

the deputy prime minister in a post franco democratic spain and what you see this is a sequence in the film where we look at the transition and you see that in the judiciary in parts of government in the security forces there are many different continuity s. between dictatorship and democracy and if you think of this more generally in terms of transitional justice in countries where there's a revolution there's a complete change of government in the case of spain franco died while he was still in power and so his regime had of other of influence in shaping how democracy would be found it now the journey for justice cortical in the film arguably begins in the context of something that happened here the blair government was released general pinochet of chile the ridgeback the chilean dictator why seeking justice for all the 10s of thousands of people dead and the baby stolen in spain starwood pinochet so this is the core principle called universal jurisdiction that says that if the crimes committed and if crimes were committed by a state and those crimes cannot be prosecuted in the place
