Discover the extraordinary journey of a feminist icon in Norita the forthcoming feature documentary about Nora Cortiñas. From Executive Producers and Academy Award® Winners Jane Fonda and Gustavo Santaolalla comes a film that takes viewers on a gripping journey through Argentina’s tumultuous history, where Norita’s personal tragedy becomes a catalyst for change.

As a mother seeking justice for her disappeared son during the dark days of Argentina’s dictatorship, Norita’s unwavering determination and fearless activism led her to co-found the renowned Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo, a pivotal human rights organization. The film chronicles her journey to seek justice for the past while inspiring the next generation of women’s rights activists. Norita has been held up as a symbol by the women’s movement, dating back to the 1980s, and is seen as a fundamental fixture in the movement’s success during Argentina’s 2020 vote to legalize abortion.

With exclusive interviews, rare footage, and original music by two-time Academy Award® winner Gustavo Santaolalla, this documentary captures the heart and soul of a fearless feminist leader.
