“A hopeful reminder that freedom can and will prevail under the power of collective activism and solidarity.” — PASTE MAGAZINE

FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION IN ALL CATEGORIES, INCLUDING

ARGENTINA, 1985 is inspired by the true story of Julio Strassera, Luis Moreno Ocampo and their young legal team of unlikely heroes in their David-vs-Goliath battle in which, under constant threat, they dared to prosecute Argentina’s bloodiest military dictatorship, against all odds and in a race against time, to bring justice to the victims of the Military Junta.

“In this period, we are living where societies are so divided…to tell this story about how hard it was to build a new democracy in Argentina, I think it’s a topic that is especially relevant.”
