A place called Chiapas

DVD 2005

Documentary on the Zapatista uprising in Chiapas, Mexico filmed over an eight month period. The bravery and creativity of the indigenous people in this area of Mexico is breathtaking. They have managed to tell the world their story, and survive the presence of the well-armed Mexican troops and paramilitary forces.
