Movie Description
A television reporter risks her career and her life pursuing a shady trail of clues left in the wake of the shooting of two young men at on a mountaintop near a broadcast tower in 1978 Puerto Rico. Were they terrorists or victims of a government conspiracy? Based on a true story.
Synopsis
Inspired by a true story, this film follows a TV reporter's investigation into the suspicious deaths of two Puerto Rican nationalists in 1978.
Kate, a journalist in San Juan, suspects a cover-up when the two men, who wanted Puerto Rico to secede from the U.S., are found dead. As Kate looks into the murders, she finds a trail of corruption within the police department and the FBI, neither of which wants to see Puerto Rico become independent.
Although Kate's life is threatened every step of the way, she's determined to uncover the truth and see that justice prevails.
Film Notes
Shot in Technicolor.
Additional cast: Jorge Luis Ramos; Fernando Quinones; Claribel Medina.

Puerto Rico became a possession of the USA in 1898; a commonwealth in 1952. The debate between the rival factions who wanted independence turned violent on the 26th anniversary of the commonwealth, in 1978.
