The Tim Hetherington Award was awarded to The silence of the Mole.
In the 1970s, a journalist who called himself ‘The Mole’ infiltrated the bowels of Guatemala’s most repressive government in order to help the resistance, accessing information about political violence that the military government had been planning. Today, the search for this unusual character probes the cracks in the walls of silence that surround this country’s hidden history.
This award recognises a film and filmmaker which best reflects journalist Tim Hetherington’s legacy.
The Tim Hetherington Award is sponsored by Dogwoof.
