“ERASING DAD” AKA "BORRANDO A PAPÁ"
(FEATURE DOC)

A feature documentary that combined the story of fathers fighting to see their children with the testimony of professionals who confessed how they do everything to keep families apart in the name of profit. After the theatrical release in October 2014 we released the film on YouTube.  The exposé of court corruption and discrimination caused the film to be censored in Argentina, but people distributed it underground. The impact was huge: the film became front page news and it resulted in Argentina approving shared parenting legislation.  Our Facebook page has 47k followers.
