Save the Renaico River 

documentary

In the film we hear the testimonies of Carmen Gloria Morales, also known as Aunt Panchita, as well as Adolfo: both of them are residents of Renaico who have a special connection to the river. Members of the “Save the Renaico River Collective” organization also speak, in the documentary, about their different community-based projects, and they present their research—the product of two years of work—about the reasons that the river has reached such low levels. The documentary was made in 2016.

The objectives of the film are to inform Renaico residents about the reasons why the river was running dry, and to remind them about the affective connection they have with the river and get them to commit to care for and defend it.
