Self defence

Description

With the Shining Path guerilla movement in decline, the Peruvian government set up a Commission for Peace and Reconciliation to hear the testimonies of those who had suffered in the war. Shot in 2002, and framed by the Commission's hearings in Ayacucho, this film follows one of the witnesses back to her village in the mountains and hears of the terrible atrocities.
