Argentina, 1985 is inspired by the true story of prosecutors Julio Strassera Y Luis Moreno Ocampo, who in 1985 dared to investigate and prosecute the bloodiest military dictatorship in Argentine history. Undaunted by the still considerable military influence in the fragile new democracy, Strassera and Moreno Ocampo assembled a young legal team of unlikely heroes for their David versus Goliath battle. Under constant threat to themselves and their families, they ran against time to do justice for the victims of the military junta.

Axel Kuschevatzky, Federico Posternak, Agustina Llambi-Campbell, Ricardo Darín, Santiago Mitre, Santiago Carabante, Chino Darín and Victoria Alonso produce the film.
