Introduction

Chocobar died on 12 October 2009, while protecting the ancestral lands of the Chuchagasta community, in the Argentine province of Tucamán. Martel’s compelling film balances the intimate and the epic in its dissection of the events of the day, the trial that followed and the absence left by his death for his grieving family. It’s gripping chronicle, where the legacy of colonialism is all too present.
