Virtual First Friday Film Fest

Brought to you by Davis Library

Watch the film at your leisure and we'll discuss it on the First Friday of every month (usually). This month we will be discussing "The Official Story" (1985)

This Argentine drama focuses on Alicia (Norma Aleandro), a high school history teacher who is leading a comfortable life with her husband, Roberto (Héctor Alterio), a businessman with ties to the military, and their adopted daughter. When Alicia begins to wonder about the identity of the little girl's birth parents, she finds herself suspecting that her daughter may be the child of people abducted or killed by the government's brutal crackdown on leftist groups.

Winner of Best Foreign Language Film at the Academy Awards, and Golden Globes. Winner of Prize of the Ecumenical Jury and Best Actress at the Cannes Film Festival.
