Synopsis

Hours before her assassination, indigenous leader Berta Cáceres wrote down the names of corrupt interests intent on killing her. Using these clues, the documentary pieces together the puzzle to help Berta solve her own murder.

In the most dangerous country in the world for environmental defenders, Milton Benítez, a tenacious Honduran journalist, follows the clues written down with Berta in the meeting they held the day before her murder. With the help of Almudena Bernabeu, a renowned international lawyer, the puzzle is put together. What killed Berta? Behind the crime, the dubious operation of companies in collusion with public officials forges a pattern of death. The pieces of unpublished archive material, unsuspected testimonies and the investigation of the rigged contracts denounced by Berta all fit together.
