Films of the week:

The Women of Wangki

The women of Wangki are indigenous people of the Miskita and Mayangna ethnic groups who inhabit the banks of the Coco or Wangki River in northern Nicaragua and who historically and over the years have suffered triple violence and marginalization for being indigenous, poor, and women. United and empowered, they are fighting to occupy their space in a hostile and macho society, preserving their identity, conserving their ancestral customs, and respecting and defending the environment, which is becoming extinct due to the uncontrollable advance of the agricultural frontier.
