Paulina gives up a brilliant lawyer’s career in order to dedicate herself to teaching in a depressed region of Argentina. A portrait of a dedicated woman, having to face her own beliefs. By following her frantic journey, the film is also a luminous and intelligent reflection on politics and justice.
Selected at the 2015 Critics’ Week, Santiago Mitre’s award-winning film presents a fully-developed, powerful central character led by a spectacular performance. The structure of Paulina testifies for Argentine cinema’s talent in combining genre with cleverly crafted and sensitive stories.
