‘It is alleged that experiments in torture are carried out [at] Colonia Dinidad, near the town of Parral, in Linares Province approximately 400 kilometres south of Santiago.’
The BBC reported in 2005, that former political prisoners gave evidence to say that there was ‘a warren of stone-walled tunnels under the colony, where they were taken to be tortured with electric shocks to the strains of Wagner and Mozart.’
Michael Nyqvist’s character is said to be based upon Paul Schäfer, who was the founder and former leader of the German immigrants who lived in Colonia Dinidad.
Schäfer, a Nazi supporter and medic, fled Germany in 1961 after being accused of 𝓈ℯ𝓍ually abusing two boys while running another commune masked as a charitable organisation.
