Then Came Morning

James Grand

In 1978, Argentina is in the midst of the military's infamous "Dirty War." A junta ‎has plunged the nation into its darkest days and its people into a vortex of fear ‎and suspicion. Those who think differently or independently may leave their ‎homes and never return; they are "disappeared." Then Came Morning follows ‎two young men with little in common but their curiosity about the mysteries and ‎omnipresent danger around them. Paul's modest and naïve life is restricted; ‎Marco's life of privilege has ties to the ruling regime. Despite the clash of class ‎and ideologies, their bond grows until one afternoon the unthinkable happens.

‎Then Came Morning is a haunting portrayal of a nation's descent into darkness ‎but also the enduring quest for justice and remembrance. The two men's journeys ‎try to make sense of what is happening around them and to their nation and ‎reveal truths each must face about his family, his country and, ultimately, ‎himself. ‎
