overview
Filmed amidst the bloody confrontation between Guatemala's military and virtually unarmed Mayans, this Sundance award-winning documentary chronicles the amazing story of Rigoberta Menchú of the Quiché tribe, who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her bravery and humanitarianism. A true David and Goliath tale, the rerelease of Menchu's amazing efforts is updated with filmmaker commentary, a foreword by Susan Sarandon and an epilogue.
