Ratings and reviews

Rigoberta Menchu Incredibly sad to see what the Maya people have been through, but Rigoberta Menchu is a hero of her people and has fought for their justice.

I am shocked How much I did not know about Guatemala before I saw this movie. I’ve been studying Latin studies for years.

Highly Recommended This documentary tells in one hour what a semester studing Guatemala never did. I’m amazed at the hardship that is at the hand’s of the American CIA.
