A Place Called Chiapas (1998)

This documentary chronicles the Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional's (EZLN or Zapatista) efforts of indigenous resistance in the remote Chiapas region in Mexico. Under the spell of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the rural population is continuously being exploited, dispossessed and displaced. Today, the Zapatista movement still inspires the empowering of indigenous populations world wide and calls for the protection of their means of subsistence.
