Awka Liwen - Rebellion at Dawn

user
Director: Mariano Aiello and Kristina Hille.
Long Synopsis Awka Liwen is the story of the struggle for wealth distribution in Argentina since the genocide of native peoples and the theft of their ancestral territories. For this is was created a culture of racism against the Indian and the gaucho who still lives in society. In 2008, the same sectors as they appropriated indigenous lands attempted a coup to keep their class privileges. There are two competing models of country that the film deconstructs from the following core concepts: Inequality in the distribution of resources. A very small group of people in the country seized huge tracts of its territory killing, enslaving, or expelling their natural owners. Then, the same factional group opposed in the past and present to pay taxes. The history repeats itself cyclically. Industrialization versus commodity-exporting economy. Since the landlord class is consolidated in the country and integrating into the global economy (under the United Kingdom until World War II), that group support a "free trade” policies. The great land owners believes that allowing free entry of products manufactured in the UK - without trying to develop a local industry - is going to give them the possibility of exporting primary products of their great farms with prices more profitable. This class always opposed and oppose today to the country's industrialization. Structural racism. Argentina is defined as a country of European immigrants. But when you look in the mirror is mestizo. The killing of Indigenous Peoples didn’t exterminate complete but maintein the status quo of the colonial over-exploitation. Injustice. Over 500 years have passed of the dispossession of their lands and now, again, are expelled en masse from the land they have left (usually the worst). Globalization. The boundaries of capitalism more primitive and aggressive spread, and go where they previously could not had interest in arrive A case study of Leleque in the huge farm of Benetton. One People, One Culture. Aboriginal peoples are holders of an ancient culture that is partly obscured, if not denigrated by the dominant culture (European Judeo-Christian). Short Synopsis Awka Liwen is the story of the struggle for wealth distribution in Argentina since the genocide of native peoples and the theft of their ancestral territories. For it is was created a culture of racism against the Indian and the Gaucho who still lives in society. In 2008, the same sectors as they appropriated indigenous lands attempted a coup to keep their class privileges.

AWKA LIWEN – REBELLION AT DAWN

user
Director: Mariano Aiello and Kristina Hille.
Awka Liwen is the story of the massacres against Native Peoples in Argentina (nineteenth century) for the theft of their lands and the current discrimination against them and their descendants. Those who funded the genocide against Indigenous Peoples they always opposed to paying higher taxes and reacted with extreme violence when they felt threatened in their class interests: deaths of rural workers during the strikes of 1921 in Patagonia and extermination of 30000 Argentines during the dictatorship. The racism against the native argentine was not accidental: it was the alibi to justify the robbery of lands to Indian and the Gaucho by the descendants of Europeans. The current rebellion of agribusiness leaders seeking "European" price and costs "Argentinian" to food embodies a profound contempt for the majority. The division of the Argentines, the eternal "trench" can be closed. A government attempt to do so through a more equitable redistribution of wealth. But again the landowners are opposed to losing their class privileges. They want a coup. The people said, NOT MORE!
