Yo Soy Nevenka • Festival favorite Icíar Bollaín’s (“Rosa’s Wedding,” “Yuli”) new film tells the story of the first woman in Spain to take a politician to court for sexual harassment where he was found legally liable. In 2004, Nevenka Fernandez, 24, Finance councillor in the Ponferrada City Council, was relentlessly harassed, sentimentally and professionally, by the mayor of her city, a man used to doing as he pleased, politically and personally. Nevenka decided to report him, knowing she would pay a very high price. Her case marks the beginning, in Spain, of the #metoo movement long before the term was coined.
