La historia oficial (The Official Story) follows Alicia, a well-to-do high-school history teacher in early-1980s Buenos Aires, who begins to suspect that her adopted teenage daughter may be the child of a "desaparecido"—one of the thousands of people seized by the military regime. As Alicia quietly investigates—questioning friends, confronting her husband’s evasions and possible complicity, and coming into contact with human-rights activists and the Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo—she is forced to confront painful truths about state terror, personal responsibility and the costs of denial. The film traces her moral and emotional struggle for the truth in a society still reckoning with its recent atrocities.
