Directors Gabriela Pena and Picho García's documentary "Where the Silence Is Heard" premiered at Copenhagen International Documentary Film Festival on March 17, following Pena's return to her family's abandoned Chilean house to explore three generations of inherited trauma stemming from Augusto Pinochet's dictatorship and exile. The film traces how fear, absence, and silence shaped family relationships, with Pena discovering during production that the work was ultimately about her fractured connection with her mother.
