Challenged by the widespread globalization of information sources, and the deregulation and privatization of media outlets, marginalized communities worldwide ask: "When will we be able to control, own and manage the communication processes and tools critical to our community's social development?" This short documentary examines the work of a group of indigenous filmmakers in Bolivia who have used film and video as part of their struggle for representation, providing a brief look into the roots of the indigenous filmmaking movement in Bolivia, the philosophy behind it, its relevance today, and its hopes and aims for the future.
