Argentina, 2009. Three white men attempt to expel members of the indigenous community of Chuschagasta, claiming ownership of the land. Armed, they kill the community leader, Javier Chocobar. The murder is filmed, and in 2018, after nine years of impunity and centuries of colonial history, the trial begins.
Born in Salta, Argentina, Lucrecia Martel is a film director and screenwriter whose work has received international acclaim.
