IMG_0836
Tolvanera is a documentary that tells, through the story of a journalist and his investigation, the case of the El Bajío ejido in the Sonoran desert.

El Bajío managed to expel Minera Penmont (part of Fresnillo PLC and in turn a subsidiary of Industrias Peñoles) from its lands and won 67 lawsuits for which the mining company must, among other things, return all the gold it extracted from its lands and remedy environmental damage.

Violence against ejidatarios has intensified since these legal victories. The ejidatarios have been beaten, imprisoned, assassinated and disappeared.

The film exposes the different faces of the storm in which we find ourselves and that prevents us from making sense of reality.
