What happens

Tinta roja es una película documental de Argentina filmada en colores dirigida por Carmen Guarini y Marcelo Céspedes sobre su propio guion escrito en colaboración con Jorge Goldenberg que se estrenó el 19 de marzo de 1998. Originalmente era un video sobre la violencia policial y cómo la reflejaba la revista sensacionalista Esto!, pero al dejar de publicarse la misma los directores la adaptaron a la redacción de Crónica.​ (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
