At the height of the Peruvian gold rush, Nelida, an Andean woman able to communicate with water spirits, uses her powers to prevent a mining corporation from destroying the body of water she considers her mother. A gold deposit valued at billions of dollars lies just beneath Nelida’s lakes and leads farmers and Latin America’s biggest gold producer into conflict
- Approx. 87 min.
Screening followed by discussion facilitated by Dr. Rosa Cabrera, Director of the UIC Latino Cultural Center.
