As the military coup spreads across the country, Captain Jorge Silva, former head of the Air Force intelligence service, receives a life-changing order: he must transform the Air Force Academy, where he trains young cadets, into a detention and torture centre. Inspired by true events, El Hangar Rojo is the first Latin American film to shed light on the inner workings of the military during the dictatorships of the 1970s. A character-driven political thriller about men caught in the machinery of military power and forced by history to take sides.
