The programmer’s eye

Following her convictions, Paulina gives up a career as a lawyer to teach in a disadvantaged region of Argentina, going against the advice of her father, an eminent judge, and of her boyfriend. Faced with the violence of the environment, she remains committed until the breaking point, knocking over one's beliefs in terms of justice. By portraying a woman both fragile and unalterable, Paulina exposes the need to always update our ideals in order to reaffirm them.
