It seems unconscionable that in modern-day Spain, victims of torture live on the same street as their abusers. In 1977, parliament passed a general amnesty law prohibiting the prosecution of any crimes committed by Franco's dictatorship. As a result, José María “Chato” Galante passes by his torturer's window every day, and Maria Martín can't locate her mother's remains to finally lay her to rest. While Chile and South Africa formed truth and reconciliation committees to face their human rights violations, Spain imposed a near-total historical amnesia. A band of courageous survivors launches the groundbreaking "Argentine Lawsuit," a case against Franco conspirators, based in international human rights laws and filed in Buenos Aires. Executive produced by the Almodóvar brothers and winner of the 2018 Berlinale Panorama Audience Award, this rousing testimonial reveals not only how deeply the past can scar, but how willingly it's forgotten.
