I Am Nevenka(EUFF2025)
In 2004, Nevenka Fernandez, 24, Finance councilor 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: those around her didn't support her. Her case marks the beginning, in Spain, of the #metoo movement long before the term was coined. The person at the heart of it becomes a pioneer, the first woman to take a powerful, popular politician to court for sexual abuse and harassment in the workplace.
