Overview
- Directed and co-written by Dolores Fonzi with Laura Paredes, the drama is based on Ana Correa’s book Somos Belén about the wrongful criminalization of a miscarriage in Tucumán.
- The film is in Argentine theaters and on the festival circuit in San Sebastián, and it was preselected by the Argentine Film Academy for potential Oscar submission.
- The real woman protected under the name Belén attended an avant‑premiere incognito and told Página/12 the movie moved her and that she encourages people to see it.
- Critics note the narrative emphasizes personal and social consequences over courtroom procedure, framing the story as a broader reflection on justice and dignity.
- Actress Luisa Lucía Paz, who plays a sociologist, says the film invites audiences to confront inequalities and energizes ongoing feminist and trans‑feminist activism.
