Hudson Film Festival’s Winter Watch: Free Screening
Set in Argentina’s province of Tucumán, BELÉN tells the true story of Julieta, a young woman accused of infanticide after suffering a miscarriage, and Soledad Deza, the bold lawyer who risks everything to take on the highly controversial, precedent-setting case. As the trial unfolds, Julieta’s plight becomes a flashpoint in the battle against a conservative legal system — sparking a groundswell of outrage and a growing wave of solidarity that transcends borders. Based on the book “Somos Belén” by Ana Correa.
