WHITE ELEPHAN:
It's so big.
How many people live at the slum?
It's hard to know.
At least officially.
Besides, this is not even
in the maps.
for an estimate.
Between kids, godparents and family
The whole slum probably doubles that.
- Thirty thousand?
- Yes.
This was meant to be a hospital.
Three hundred families live here now.
Plus us among them.
The original project
dates back to 1937.
Created by a socialist,
Alfredo Palacios.
It was approved by the Congress.
What happened?
Construction was stopped...
and reinitiated almost 20 years later
during Peron's term.
Then it was stopped again,
after the coup in 1955.
It was going to be the biggest
hospital in Latin America.
Now they call it "White elephant".

of one of the kids

They thought he was with the cops.
