Por Adrian Savino

Una mañana de noviembre, mientras preparaba una clase de Ciudadanía y Participación, Cristian recibió en su celular una llamada de número desconocido. Atendió y una voz preguntó por su nombre y apellido. Respondió que sí era él, y la voz se identificó como Marcos, del Archivo Provincial de la Memoria. Marcos quería avisarle que habían hallado la información sobre su padre que él les había solicitado cuatro años atrás.

Al otro día, Cristian fue al Pasaje Santa Catalina y preguntó por Marcos. Le indicaron que pasara hacia la derecha, a un sector de oficinas que daban a un pequeño patio interior. En una de ellas pudo ubicarlo: un hombre joven y atento, quien le hizo tomar asiento frente a un escritorio y pidió que lo aguardara unos minutos.

Allí se quedó entonces Cristian, observando algunos afiches enmarcados en la pared y disfrutando nada menos que de All things must pass, el disco de George Harrison (su beatle preferido) cuyas canciones le llegaban desde la oficina de al lado.

Marcos volvió con unos papeles abrochados, se los entregó y se sentó frente a él. Le dijo que allí figuraba el detalle de las pesquisas que se habían realizado en distintos archivos, con resultados negativos en casi todos los casos menos en uno. Éste era un expediente de la Policía Federal, cuyas copias también estaban incluidas en los papeles que le había dado.

Se trataba de un formulario con datos de su padre mecanografiados en sus correspondientes casilleros: nombre, domicilio, estado civil, etc. Al dorso de ese mismo papel (pero fotocopiado en otra hoja en simple faz) figuraban anotaciones manuscritas algo desprolijas y desalineadas, las cuales indicaban fechas concretas, seguidas cada una de ellas por informaciones de entradas y salidas: del propio D2, de la cárcel de San Martín, de Encausados.

Marcos le dijo que esos eran los únicos datos hallados hasta el momento, pero que a partir de los mismos quizás se podría acceder a algo más. Le contó sobre el Registro de Extremistas, un archivo fotográfico que se había conservado y digitalizado, conformado por imágenes de los cientos de personas que habían pasado por el D2 como detenidos políticos. Dado que en base a la información del expediente podía saberse dentro de qué período había estado allí su papá, era probable que se pudiera encontrar su imagen dentro de ese registro.

Marcos le preguntó si estaba dispuesto a intentarlo, y Cristian le dijo que sí. Entonces Marcos salió por unos instantes, volvió con una notebook abierta y la puso sobre el escritorio. Luego hizo clic sobre una carpeta titulada “Febrero-Marzo 77”, le dijo que podía explorarla tranquilo todo el tiempo que quisiera, y lo dejó solo.

Las canciones de George seguían sonando pero a medida que Cristian avanzaba con las imágenes, éstas fueron acaparando su atención hasta abstraerlo casi completamente de todo el resto. Eran fotos en blanco y negro de una calidad formidable, seguramente realizadas con el mejor equipamiento disponible en la época. Imágenes de frente y de perfil de decenas de hombres y mujeres de distintas edades y condiciones sociales, todos con el fondo de un panel rectangular de telgopor, y una placa por encima de sus cabezas en la que se veía en primer lugar un número de cinco cifras, y al lado los dígitos correspondientes a día, mes y año de la foto.

Con el paso de las distintas imágenes (aproximadamente treinta personas por cada día), le iban quedando en la retina tanto las regularidades como algunas rarezas.

La mano que sostenía la varilla en cuyo extremo se encontraba la placa, siempre en el margen superior izquierdo; pero también, en uno que otro caso, junto al rostro bigotudo del portador.

Las miradas de los detenidos, sombrías y preocupadas; pero también un par de mujeres sonrientes, y de varones hoscos y desafiantes.

 La ausencia de marcas de heridas o maltratos físicos; pero también un hombre con la frente cruzada por vendas y un ojo semicerrado e hinchado. 

La mayoría de rostros juveniles, veinteañeros; pero también algunos hombres mayores y púberes casi niños.

Las imágenes se sucedían, punteadas por su dedo sobre el panel de la notebook. Y si bien no dejaban de impresionarlo, la progresión le generaba cierto acostumbramiento. La expectativa por encontrar a su papá, por otra parte, decaía a medida que pasaban uno tras otro los rostros desconocidos. Hubo dos o tres casos en que le pareció reconocerlo en alguna cara más o menos familiar, pero el equívoco se le revelaba casi en el mismo instante.

Y así iba acercándose al final de la carpeta, un poco apurado por la frustración, cuando se encontró con una cara remotamente conocida. Se demoró un poco en ese hombre de frente amplia, pelo enrulado y camisa a cuadros, que no tenía nada que ver con su papá pero le sonaba de alguna parte, y al pasar por fin su foto de perfil, esta vez sí, apareció su rostro.

Era él sin ninguna duda, y lo miraba con esos mismos ojos sombríos de casi todos los demás. Instantáneamente Cristian se dio cuenta de que el anterior no era otro que Raúl, el amigo que había caído con él.

De perfil no parecía tan afectado por la situación, pero la foto de frente hablaba por sí sola. Tenía el pelo algo revuelto, y una chomba de piqué blanca con todos los botones desprendidos.     

Se quedó mirándolo por varios minutos, y luego se paró para llamar a Marcos. Él vio la imagen y dijo que no había dudas, era un calco de Cristian. Se sentó y comenzó a tipear algo en la PC de la oficina, que después mandó a impresión. Se trataba de un “Acta de Reconocimiento Fotográfico” en la que, con el estilo frío de los documentos jurídicos, se relataba y consignaba que Cristian había reconocido la imagen de su padre.

Cristian firmó el original, y Marcos un duplicado que luego abrochó a los papeles que le había entregado primero, junto con una impresión de las dos fotos de su papá.

Después de saludar y agradecer a Marcos, Cristian salió del D2 para encontrarse con Majo, su compañera y futura mamá de su primer hijo.

Cuando le mostró las fotos, ella sonrió dulcemente y le dijo:

-Wow. Alta facha tenía tu viejo…
