Argentina 1985 Argentina, 1985 dramatizes the most important trial in Argentinian history, when the leaders of the right-wing military dictatorship that ruled the country from 1976–1983 were made to answer for their crimes. That it even happened at all was a victory in itself—the film depicts how the lead prosecutor, Julio Strassera (Ricardo Darín), struggled to get the trial off the ground.-Film Foward
