MOVIE NIGHT

This week: A Place Called Chiapas

Thurs., Feb. 3, 8:00 p.m.

TIME‚S UP! Space, 49 East Houston (bet. Mott and Mulberry)



A trip into the perilous state of Chiapas in southern Mexico is taken in this 1998 documentary, which focuses on the Zapatista National Liberation Army and its mysterious leader, Subcomandante Marcos. The interviews with farmers who fear they will be murdered by government troops are moving, and a press conference in which tape recordings of death threats are played is disturbing. The background of the rebellion in Chiapas is told concisely with most of the film consisting of atmospheric footage showing life in the troubled and violent region. The film crew was itself threatened by right-wing paramilitary death squads, and the paranoia that is an asset in such an environment is tensely translated via filmed encounters with government troops.



Bill Weinberg, journalist and author of the book Homage to Chiapas: The New Indigenous Struggles in Mexico, will discuss the current situation in the region, and will answer questions after the screening.
