Discovering who you are after 32 years
Francisco Madariaga is blunt about how most of his life has been until now. "I spent 32 years living a lie," he says. Mr Madariaga, 33, used to be called Alejandro Ramiro Gallo, the name given to him by his adoptive parents. Last year he came face-to-face for the first time with his real father and confirmed his fears. He is the son of one of thousands of left-wing activists who were tortured and killed during military rule in Argentina between 1976 and 1983, a period known as the Dirty War.
