Pinochet had the power and the guns, but the people had a weapon—the camera. In the bloody riots and protests on Chile’s streets, taking pictures was resistance—a way of being more than spectators. Fearless photojournalists honed their craft, creating many of the now-legendary images which helped focus world attention on the Pinochet regime’s repressive tactics.
