The writer and journalist Leila Guerriero (Argentina), presents her latest book, La llamada, a work of fiction that knits together a series of interviews with Silvia Labayru, the Argentinean member of the Montoneros guerrilla group who, in 1976, was abducted, tortured and raped at the notorious Escuela de Mecánica la Armada, to which thousands of people were taken and killed, and from where she makes it out alive. Guerriero started interviewing Labayru in 2021, while awaiting the sentence of the first trial for sexual violence committed against abducted women during the dictatorship, at which Labayru was an accuser. In conversation with Jan Martínez Ahrens.
