>> The documentary Granito, which highlights CJA's Guatemala Genocide Case and 
>> the work of CJA International Attorney Almudena Bernabeu and CJA Advisory 
>> Council Member Naomi Roht-Arriaza will premier on PBS on Thursday, June 28th 
>> at 10 pm.  (check local listings)
>> 
>> This important film explores the intersection between documentary film 
>> making and human rights litigation.  During the height of the conflict in 
>> Guatemala, film maker Pamela Yates had the opportunity to interview General 
>> Ríos Montt who admitted, on tape, that he had command control over the 
>> troops that committed mass human rights abuses.  That footage, long kept in 
>> storage, ended up as a critical piece of evidence in the Guatemala Genocide 
>> Case.  The film Granito tells the story of the conflict and documents the 
>> journey that this evidence took which culminated in Ms. Yates testifying 
>> before the Spanish National Court in 2009.  It also captures the story of 
>> the attorneys and investigators who have been working diligently over the 
>> years to hold Ríos Montt and other senior members of the military to 
>> account. 
>>  
>> Best,
