The Argentine star expressed his full support for the film directed by Santiago Mitre, which will compete to win the Best Foreign Film award.

The Argentine soccer player Lionel Messi shared through his social networks a message of support for the film Argentina, 1985, which will go in search of the third Oscar in the history of the country.

In Argentina, 1985, Ricardo Darín plays the prosecutor Julio César Strassera and addresses the historic Trial of the Juntas, in which five of the repressors of the dictatorship that occurred between 1976 and 1983, the bloodiest in the country’s history, were convicted. . Another of the protagonists of the film is Peter Lanzani, who puts himself in the shoes of Luis Moreno Ocampo. In addition, Santiago Miter was in charge of the direction.

The film is nominated to win the Best Foreign Film award at the Oscars and will compete against All quiet in the western front, from Germany, Close, from Belgium; EO from Poland; and The quiet girl, from Ireland.

Argentina, 1985, will seek to become the third Argentine film to win an Oscar, an achievement achieved only by La historia oficial, by Luis Puenzo, in 1986, and El secreto de sus ojos, by Juan José Campanella, in 2010.

The award ceremony will be on March 12 at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood.
