Toggle Group description

The military. "The country is safe, because we have a good secret service” (A. Pinochet)

Soldiers, army members, ordinary police, Carabineros, and agents of the DINA, the feared and dangerous secret police.
They are military, but also politicians, in a mashup common in dictatorships. They can be cold, but also cruel and violent. They are respected by some, and feared by all. Among them there are loyal soldiers, but also ambitious and ruthless individuals that hide their perversions behind orders and an uniform. They are the fist of repression, justified by the need to maintain order and safety, avoiding any opposition that might destabilize or damage the government, protecting Chile from the soviet menace.
Their gameplay will be related to physical and psychological abuse, discovering brutality, and they will be torn between duty, discipline and moral dilemma.
THEMES: human dignity, responsibility, duty, morals.

Teaser:


Nothing is more important than order to Covarrubias. General of the Chilean Army, he gladly served Pinochet and made every effort to bring the society back to order, just to be replaced by a bunch of undisciplined soldiers and civilians. It his is duty to follow the orders without discussions, but he can't avoid to frown, worried about the amount of power and freedom allowed to those greedy hands.

Relations:


Has been in touch with José Lopez Rega   for some time; his ways are peculiar, but his ideas are sensible. Elisa Anderson   is a charming woman; reliable, efficient, yet subtly exciting. Quite the opposite of Lieutenant Isabel Almuna  : she tried to flirt with him but he was quite annoyed by that.
