During the months of social upheaval and protests, the police branch of the Chilean military shoots at the protesters regardless of their condition. The Chilean state systematically abuses human rights, aiming to blind protestors and erase movements.


Dissidents is a web series made up of four 5 min chapters that immerse you in the first-person lived experiences of the Social Revolts in Chile that began on October 18, 2019. Our short films open a space to learn from participants in diverse processes of resistance. You can feel for our struggles, from the heroism and organization of the frontline combatants, and the feminist movements that emerged with greater force through performances of “Las Tesis,” through understanding the atrocities of the police branch of the military, to how art is the great tool of resistance in our society.
