The 2023 Oscar nominations are in, and while Amazon only snagged one nomination this year, it’s a big one. Argentina, 1985, the Amazon Studios-produced historical drama, received a nomination for Best International Feature Film representing Argentina. The movie, available exclusively on Prime Video, already took home the Golden Globe for Best Foreign Language Film. 

Inspired by a true story, Argentina, 1985 follows the 1985 “Trial of the Juntas,” in which a team of unlikely heroes work to prosecute those responsible for the bloodiest military dictatorship while also working to bring justice to victims. The film is more timely than ever, as countries around the world are engaged in battles to save the integrity of their democracies. Though it focuses on one specific instance, its themes have a universal appeal and takeaway.
