Consuelo Benavides and Willy Conterón, founders of Ecuamig@s and long-standing promoters of Ecuadorian culture in Berlin, invite you to a special film screening and community event. The featured film, Killa (Before the Moon Rises), tells the story of a photojournalist documenting the abuses of a mining company in his community's territory. As he faces persecution from those trying to silence his work, he also grapples with conflicts of identity, territorial justice, betrayal, and loyalty.
Before and after the screening, Luis Flores will be offering a variety of Ecuadorian delicacies in the foyer. Enjoy treats such as cositas finas, pan de yuca filled with hornado or higos con queso, encocadas, and a limited quantity of the delicious encebollado. (GR)
