The members of the “Coordination of Women of the Diocese of San Cristobal” (CODIMUJ) in Chiapas, Mexico, are women who bring the Word of God to rural and indigenous communities. In an extremely patriarchal society, these women have to fight for their most basic rights, but even within the Church there is prejudice against these activists working for equality. Thirty years after its foundation, the women of CODIMUJ are still determined to change the church from within until radical equality between men and women is achieved, with all the consequences that this entails.
Temas NoViolencia: RELIGIOUS, SEXUAL, MORAL.

FICNOVA recognises this film for providing a demonstration effect of an unstoppable trend that is sweeping the world, the vindication of the rights of human beings discriminated against because they are women, transforming even religious organisations anchored in the most severe patriarchal schemes.
