Rodrigo Rosenberg, a well-to-do lawyer from Guatemalas elite, went out cycling one Sunday morning and was found dead hours later, shot to death by hit men. Days before he had recorded a video foretelling his own murder at the hands of the countrys president, a film that quickly went viral and led to a national crisis. "Guatemalans, now is the time," had said Rosenberg in the recording, rallying massive demonstrations and protests in favor of justice and against then president Álvaro Colom even after his funeral. With streets and squares filled with banners calling for his resignation, Colom called in help from the UN-formed commission against impunity, the CICIG, and high-profile Spanish attorney Carlos Castresana. The investigation of the Rosenberg case proved a complicated affair in one of the most violent places in the world, where drive-by shootings, kidnappings, and impunity have been the norm, unremitting shock waves following the bloody civil war that ravaged Guatemala 13 years ago. What ensued was a tense year-long search for justice, a sinuous journey into the miry underworld of conspiracy and corruption, a surprising love story, and the depths of Rosenbergs soul. I Will Be Murdered delivers an intensely intimate portrait of a flawed, disturbed hero whose pursuit of truth led to a shocking turn of events.
A murder story, a love story and a thriller. In May 2009, Rodrigo Rosenberg, a charismatic lawyer went cycling near his home in Guatemala and was murdered. Nothing unusual there: Guatemala has a murder rate four times higher than Mexicos. What was extraordinary is that Rosenberg knew, for certain, he was about to be killed. There began a brilliant investigation, a journey into Rosenbergs soul and Guatemalas hell, that after multiple twists and turns, reached a stunning revelation... Rosenbergs lover had been murdered a few weeks before. He was driven to investigate things, he told friends, that would inevitably lead to his death. A video he recorded days before he died accused the president of his murder. Uploaded to YouTube, it nearly brought down the government.
