Contents/Summary
- Summary
- In 1994 the Zapatista National Liberation Army, formed mostly of indigenous men and women, started a war of self-defense for their identity, their land and a place in Mexican society. When the Zapatista Army rose in self-defense, women rebels were also fighting for justice within their own culture. “After the Revolution” explores the impact on their lives today through one very special family. The protagonists are from a Tojolobal family, whose women, inspired by the Zapatistas, tried to change lives and help other indigenous women to do the same. However, they prefer to work independently from the Zapatistas. Other contributors to the film include ex-rebel soldiers who left the organization for lack of equality and others who claim they owe everything to it.
