They Remained Silent (Los que callan)

Directed by Albert Folk
Spain
2020
18 mins

A scrupulous lawyer with a high sense of responsibility is appointed to defend one of the accused of the so-called "ATM's crime," where three young men burned a homeless woman. A guilty plea seems the most obvious solution, but when she first meets her client, he strongly refuses to go along.
