Film Description
Mujeres Unidas (Women United) spotlights indigenous women's collective work in the autonomous municipality of 17 de Noviembre (November 17), Chiapas, Mexico. Collectives have become a keystone for many Chiapaneco women involved in the movement for social and economic justice. Featuring a collective bakery, store and vegetable garden, viewers see vivid imagery of women's work interspersed with interviews about how collectives have changed and strengthened the fabric of community life.
