Missing Lives tells the stories of fifteen missing individuals, documenting the efforts of the organizations and professionals who work to release the bereaved from the anguish of their uncertainty by locating burial grounds, exhuming bodies and piecing together scattered skeletons. It aims to give a voice to the silenced victims and pay tribute to the tragedy of so many families.
