Synopsis
Despite the “green” and “clean” image of hydroelectric energy, in Honduras and other countries of the Global South, dams have negative consequences for indigenous and peasant communities. This documentary spends a year with the communities of Rio Blanco who oppose the construction of the dam in their territory, and use multiple forms of protest to defend their rights.
The Voice of the Gualcarque also shows the struggle of Berta Cáceres and COPINH against the Agua Zarca hydroelectric project. Despite constant death threats, Berta Cáceres continued her tenacious and tireless struggle for human rights for the indigenous communities, against the crimes of the authorities and private companies, which sought to force the construction of Agua Zarca at any price. Her commitment cost Berta her life.
