Cautivas
Directed by Itxaso Díaz
Currently, 24 countries prohibit the termination of pregnancy under any circumstances. El Salvador has one of the most restrictive abortion laws in the world. There, women accused of having an abortion can be sentenced to up to 40 years in prison for aggravated homicide. Cautivas tells the story of Cristina Quintanilla, who was sentenced to 30 years in prison for having an abortion. She was released from prison after four and a half years when her case was reviewed, with her life already ruined and a criminal record that will haunt her for the rest of her life.
