Responding to escalating political crises and to U.S. involvement in Central America, DCTV travelled to the Honduras/El Salvador border to document the events as thousands of civilians sought refuge from the violence in El Salvador. In a harsh condemnation of the Salvadoran government and the economic role of the United States in supplying troops, the DCTV team documented the pathetic conditions of the refugees. Directly questioning participants on both sides of the conflict, including young Salvadoran soldiers, refugees in Honduran camps, and health and relief workers, DCTV provides straightforward advocacy reportage from the frontlines of the Central American crisis.
Producers: DCTV and Robert Hohler Associates. In Spanish with English subtitles and English.
