Unprotected: Murder in Galicia

Unprotected: Murder in Galicia is a documentary film that tells the story of Isabel Fuentes. In April 2015, alleged burglars left her on the brink of death in her own home, in the village of Pazos, in Verín. From the very beginning, the Guardia Civil sergeant in charge of the case suspected that the account of what had happened did not add up and tried to protect Isabel from further attack.

Thirty-seven days later, Isabel was murdered in the hospital room where she was recovering. Featuring testimonies from investigators, doctors, family members, neighbours and journalists, the documentary film seeks to understand how this could have happened and why the system failed to protect her.
