Synopsis

Stealthily filmed in the jungles of Guatemala during the military dictatorship, this documentary is the first public testimony of the so-called Poblaciones en Resistencia, made up of more than 15.000 indigenous people that in total anonymity resisted for more than 10 years the fierce repression of an army ready to finish them. The documentary reflects the epic struggle of these indigenous peoples to keep their lands and traditions.
