I Am Nevenka

Overview

In 2000, 24-year-old Nevenka Fernández, the Finance Councilor for Ponferrada, faced relentless harassment from the mayor, a man used to bending others to his will, both personally and politically. Although she is fully aware of the high costs of speaking out, she refrains from reporting him. The support she hoped for from her community is absent, and the media subjects her to a harsh public scrutiny. This true story follows Nevenka as she bravely becomes a trailblazer, taking a powerful politician to court for sexual and workplace harassment for the first time.
