Weaving songs, interviews, and archive footage, Cantadoras is a musical journey through ancestral resistance to violence, from working in white-owned mines, civil war in which violence rests heavily on rural communities, and contemporary challenges. Cuba’s
instrumental role in the peace process in Colombia gives this film a special significance.
