What’s being screened
«Las abogadas» is a 2022 US film directed by Victoria Bruce, lasting 92 minutes, brought to Colegio Mayor Rector Peset on 15 December 2026 as part of the 16th Human Rights Film Cycle. The story focuses on the controversial situation of refugees at the southern US border.
Who organises the cycle
The Human Rights Film Cycle is an initiative by Amnesty International València, organised in collaboration with the Aula de Cinema at the University of Valencia. According to the organisation, it has spent over a decade using cinema as a tool for raising awareness and sparking debate on human rights.
Discussion after the screening
Screenings in the Human Rights Film Cycle typically end with a discussion featuring experts—university lecturers, journalists, activists, lawyers, or NGO members—who analyse the film’s political, legal, and social context. The audience is invited to join the debate.
