Synopsis "Actes Humans (in Catalan)"

Al maig del 1980, a la ciutat de Gwangju l'exèrcit va sufocar una revolta popular provocant milers de morts.Actes humans reviu aquells fets terribles a través de les experiències de set personatges diferents: la tortura, la por, l'angoixa de no trobar els desapareguts, el dol, el sentiment de culpa del supervivent, els malsons, les ferides, les seqüeles, els retrobaments... I el record dels morts, la seva veu i la seva llum.
