Que Sea Ley

By Juan Solanas

In Argentina, where abortion is illegal, a woman dies every week from clandestine abortion. Over the course of eight weeks, the bill was fiercely debated in the Senate but also in the streets, where tens of thousands of activists demonstrated to defend this fundamental right. Filmmaker Juan Solanas poignantly recounts the extraordinary mobilisation that sparked hope for change.
