A Place in the World (Spanish: Un lugar en el mundo) is a 1992 Argentine drama film co-written, co-produced and directed by Adolfo Aristarain. It stars José Sacristán, Federico Luppi, Leonor Benedetto and Cecilia Roth.
The drama won numerous awards and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, but was declared ineligible and removed from the final ballot because it had been submitted by Uruguay, which had exercised insufficient artistic control over the film. It is the only film so far to have been disqualified from the Foreign Language Film category after having secured a nomination.Synopsis
The story is set in 1974, following the death of Argentine President Juan Perón. While they live their lives, the characters argue about the country's most controversial subjects at the time: religion, politics, and human rights.
