School (ESMA) operated, “the story of the family of Anatole and Victoria is told.”
281. The Court takes a positive view of efforts already undertaken by Argentina, but Court orders
specific measures in response to the need to recover and preserve memory and recognize the
dignity of the victims in this specific case.303
282. The Court therefore deems it pertinent for the State seek the opinions of Anatole and Victoria
or their representatives and, in consideration thereof, prepare an audiovisual documentary on the
serious human rights violations committed in the framework of "State terrorism" during the period
1976-1983 and on the inter-State coordination in the context of Operation Cóndor, including the
facts of this case and the violations declared in this Judgment. In consensus with the victims, the
documentary will include a focus on the differentiated impact that the facts have on women and
children. Argentina will bear the expenses of producing, screening, and distributing the
documentary, and toward this end, it must establish a committee composed of the victims and
their representatives—if applicable—as well as representatives of relevant public institutions for
the preparation of the material. The documentary must be screened once on a television channel
with nationwide coverage, and the family members and their representatives must be informed
of the screening at least two weeks in advance. In addition, the State must provide the material
to the authorities of the other States that took part in Operation Condor—including Uruguay and
Chile—and provide the victims with fifteen copies of the video so they can distribute them to civil
society organizations and universities in the different States to promote it. The State has two
years, counted from the notification of this Judgment to produce, screen, and distribute this
documentary.
E. Guarantees of non-repetition
283. The Commission requested the measures of non-repetition to prevent similar incidents
from taking place in the future. It asked that measures be ordered to “deploy the efforts necessary
to ensure the investigations into crimes against humanity […] move forward as quickly as possible
[…], and to restore the identities of disappeared children.”
284. The representative asked that the State be ordered to “[a]dopt measures to guarantee
the non-repetition of the crimes committed” and “[f]oster the adaptation of domestic law to
international human rights law.”
285. The State argued that it has adopted a series of policies and actions regarding the process
of memory, truth, and justice. It asked the Court to "deny this request.”
E.1. Working group to coordinate efforts at the inter-State level to clarify the
serious human rights violations that occurred in the context of Operation
Condor
286. The Court takes a positive view of efforts made by Argentina to identify the perpetrators of
the crimes committed against the victims in this case and, in turn, to investigate and punish the
serious human rights violations that occurred during 1976-1983. However, as has been stated,
the Court notes that there are elements that have not been fully clarified, including the facts
carried out to the detriment of Julien Cáceres, as well as his whereabouts and those of his wife.
To these facts are added others included in the prevailing context at the time of the facts, among
which it is worth mentioning the criminal network for abducting and confiscating children, the
concealment, alteration, or suppression of their identities, and the secret transfer of numerous
victims to the territory of other States.
