IGUALADA (CO-PRESENTATION WITH CINEFEST LATINO)

  • MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS, BOSTON 465 Huntington Avenue Boston, MA, 02115 United States (map)

In one of Latin America’s most unequal countries, Francia Márquez, a Black Colombian rural activist, challenges the status quo with a presidential campaign that reappropriates the derogatory term “Igualada” — someone who acts as if they deserve rights that supposedly don’t correspond to them — and inspires a nation to dream.

 Q&A with Director Juan Mejía
