Bernarda is the Homeland

During the last dictatorship and in the first years of return to democracy in Argentina, the under movement suffered attacks, exiles, arrests, ridicule and disqualification for a large part of society and applause from a minor group of people. In that underworld, Transformism was located as a form of expression cultural and artistic. Bernarda is the homeland, deconstructs the gender binary from Lorca and those movements of culture of the 80 '.

Directed by Diego Schipani, Bernarda is the Homeland leans on a strong ensemble — Willy Lemos, Verónica Llinás — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2020.
