In 2009, members of the Indigenous Chuschagasta community in northern Argentina are violently attacked when armed men, claiming ownership of their ancestral land, attempt to force them out. Their leader, Javier Chocobar, is murdered in broad daylight—a crime captured on camera. Yet despite the undeniable evidence, justice is delayed for nearly a decade as the perpetrators remain free and the community continues its struggle.
Blending the voices and photographs of the Chuschagasta people with compelling courtroom footage, Our Land [Nuestra Tierra] reconstructs the long road to the landmark 2018 trial while exposing the enduring legacy of colonialism, land dispossession, and systemic impunity in Argentina. With her unmistakable cinematic vision, Lucrecia Martel crafts a powerful and deeply resonant work that transforms one community’s fight for justice into a universal reflection on memory, resistance, and the meaning of belonging.
