Salaverna

The documentary focuses on the events that unfolded in the Salaverna community in Zacatecas, Mexico, starting in 2010. The mining company Tayahua, linked to Carlos Slim, initiated the eviction of 150 families to pursue an open-air mining project. While over 100 families left, 35 decided to remain, facing increasing pressure from both the company and the government.

Through its portrayal of this ongoing conflict, Salaverna highlights the tensions between corporate interests and the rights of local communities. This film offers a critical perspective on the impacts of mining on families and their homes, making it relevant for those interested in social justice and environmental issues. Collectors of documentaries and films that tackle important global issues may find this title particularly significant.
