Amazon Studios said it has begun filming its first original production in Argentina, a film called ‘Argentina, 1985’ based on the trials of the military junta who had ruled the country from 1976 to 1983. It will star two of the country’s top actors, Ricardo Darin and Peter Lanzani, in the roles of prosecutors Julio Strassera and Luis Moreno Ocampo, and will be directed by Santiago Mitre.
The Amazon Originals movie is a co-production of Amazon Studios, La Union de los Rios, Kenya Films and Infinity Hill. It will premiere in cinemas and subsequently be added to the Amazon Prime Video catalogue worldwide.
