Barreda

A fictionalized drama film based on one of the most shocking crimes in Argentina's history.

Branding himself as a victim, Ricardo Barreda ignited a media storm and fueled a national scandal.

Just Mercy

The powerful true story of Harvard-educated lawyer Bryan Stevenson, who goes to Alabama to defend the disenfranchised and wrongly condemned — including Walter McMillian, a man sentenced to death despite evidence proving his innocence. Bryan fights tirelessly for Walter with the system stacked against them.
