Artificial Justice (Spanish: Justicia artificial) is a 2024 Spanish-Portuguese science fiction political thriller film directed by Simón Casal from a screenplay by Casal and Víctor Sierra.[1][2] It stars Verónica Echegui, Tamar Novas, Alba Galocha and Alberto Ammann.
Plot
[edit]In 2028, in Spain, an artificial intelligence system called THENTE 1 serves as an aid to judges. However, the government calls a referendum for this artificial intelligence to be fully implemented in the Administration of Justice, effectively replacing judges, in order to automate and depoliticize justice. Carmen Costa, a renowned judge, is invited to work on the development of the project, but the sudden disappearance of Alicia Kóvack, creator of the system, causes great distrust in her, to the point of understanding that she is discovering the tip of the iceberg of a conspiracy that aims to control, from justice, an entire country.[1][2]
