A Bundle of Silences

A Bundle of Silences is an experimental documentary that circles around the 1983 Águila Blanca heist, when the Puerto Rican pro-independence revolutionary group Los Macheteros expropriated $7 million from a Wells Fargo depot in Hartford, Connecticut. At its center are two figures who remain out of reach: Víctor Gerena, the Puerto Rican employee who carried out the robbery and vanished beyond the FBI’s grasp, and his mother, Gloria Gerena, a community organizer, social worker and advocate for bilingual education who passed away in 2022.
