I AM BERTA
[BERTA SOY YO]
What starts out as a profile of environmental and Indigenous rights activist Berta Cáceres morphs into a true crime procedural about her assassination in 2016 — which took place shortly after she predicted the names of her murderers. Epic in scope, documentarian Katia Lara's film unravels the web of government and international conspiracy seemingly tied to Cáceres' murder while immortalizing the struggle of a woman devoted to a cause that transcended her own life and turned her into a martyr recognized around the world. DIR/SCR/PROD Katia Lara; PROD Milon Benítez, Sam Vinal. Honduras, 2022, color, 136 min. In Spanish with English subtitles. NOT RATED
