Estado de Silencio (State of Silence) explores the limits of freedom of the press in Mexico, following four journalists who risk their lives to report on the collusion between organized crime and corrupt officials.

  • Santiago Maza, director and filmmaker

  • Michael Bolden, dean, Berkeley Journalism - opening remarks

  • Michael Reed-Hurtado, director of governance and operations, Guernica Centre for International Justice
