Fuck the Fascism: The crossroad of two worlds (2019-11-26)

Overview
In Rio Grande, Tierra del Fuego, the Selk'nam descendant Marcos García tells the horrific story of ethnocide of the Fuegian peoples. His testimony makes us aware of how this history continues to repeat itself; and how the precursors of these massacres and their heirs - now powerful businessmen and politicians - are still responsible for the usurpation of native lands and the violent repression against communities. In the past, it was the mutilation of Selk'nam ears; now, in the midst of the Chilean social rebellion, it is the eyes of the mestizos that are being shot by the police. MariaBasura and other activists decide to take a revenge that will lead them to a small town in Asturias, Spain, birthplace of Jose Menendez Menendez, one of the forefathers of the genocide against the native peoples of the south.
