Bronca
Synopsis
Shlomo Slutzky, an Argentinean immigrant to Israel, follows the traces of his cousin Samuel who was murdered by the 1970’s Argentinian dictatorship. Shlomo’s journey takes a sharp turn when he discovers that one of the suspected murderers – Interpol
fugitive, AnÃbal Teodoro Gauto – has found shelter in Israel. Tomer Slutzky follows his father’s fight to extradite Gauto for trial in Argentina. What begins as a father and son’s discovery of a family secret turns into an investigative drama and a public international affair when they meet fierce opposition from the state, which remains determined to protect Gauto and prevent the unveiling of dark secrets from the past.
