Last April a Zapatista delegation, called Viaje Por La Vida (Journey for Life), set sail from Mexico to Spain 500 years after the ‘conquest’ of the “New World.” They represent the seeds of the tree of life that was chopped down when the Spanish colonisers came into Mexico. When the tree got torn down the seeds spread throughout the world thus life kept existing.
This October we are excited to see the La Vocera about a Zapatista that ran for Mexican office. We will hear about the Zapatista movement, their struggle, hopes, and dreams. How they imagine a way to organise the world in a more sustainable way, where all life is honoured and respected. We hope to spread their message of: “Another world is possible, where many worlds fit.”

Gen K is super excited to welcome the Zapatistas to Utrecht to host a screening of their film and answer some questions!
Admission to this event is free but cash donations are encouraged, all proceeds will go directly to the Zapatistas.
