Synopsis
On a Sunday morning, in May 2009, Rodrigo Rosenberg, a wealthy, charismatic lawyer went cycling near his home in Guatemala City. He was shot dead. Nothing unusual about that, as tragically Guatemala has one of the highest murder rates in the world, four times higher than Mexico’s. What was extraordinary is that Rodrigo Rosenberg knew, for certain, he was about to be killed.
Two of Rosenberg's clients had been murdered a few weeks before. He was driven to investigate a case, he told his friends, which he feared would lead to his death. The next day at his funeral a friend distributed DVDs. They contained a video Rosenberg had recorded days before he died, accusing the president of being behind his murder. Within minutes it had been uploaded to Youtube. Thousands took to the streets calling on the president to resign. The country was on the brink of chaos. President Alvaro Colom protested his innocence and claimed there was a plot against him. But he was forced to ask for an independent investigation. The man chosen to find out the truth was a Spanish prosecutor, Carlos Castresana, who had made a name for fighting against Guatemala's mafias for the UN. While the country hung by a thread, he began a journey into Rosenberg’s soul and Guatemala’s hell, that after multiple twists and turns, reached a revelation so stunning, the investigator himself panicked: he feared no one would believe him. I Will Be Murdered is a non-fiction thriller that tells a true story of murder, love and political conspiracy, that is stranger than fiction.
