next member monday is….
May 18 @ 5:45pm – Our Land (Nuestra Tierra)
In 2009, a man and two accomplices try to evict members of the Indigenous community of Chuschagasta in northern Argentina. Claiming ownership of the land and armed with guns, they kill the community’s leader, Javier Chocobar. The murder is caught on video. It takes nine years of protests before court proceedings are finally opened in 2018. During all this time, the killers remain free. The film combines the voices and photographs of the community with courtroom footage to explore the long history of colonialism and land dispossession that led to this crime.
” …is bigger than one case. It’s about preserving the history of Argentina, told by those who were conquered, and supporting the ongoing struggle for indigenous survival. Martel’s filmmaking here is intentionally straightforward and precise, wielding careful storytelling as a cudgel against the bludgeoning power of the state, in order to credibly represent and affirm the existence of a history and culture that has been “officially” denied. It hardly seems like a concession considering what’s at stake.” ~ A.G. Sims, Reverse Shot
