Support Kickstarter funding for Memorias del Fuego!
Memorias Del Fuego is a feature-length documentary film about the disappearing stories of women who fought to win Nicaragua's Sandinista Revolution. The first portion, in which the filmmakers interviewed former Sandinista commanders, couriers, and journalists, was shot without any funding, but the project is raising funds to be able to return and capture the stories of female combatants from rural areas and FSLN party members.
Why did they first take a stand? How did they fight and win the Revolution? What did they hope for? Your help is needed to document these untold stories before they disappear.
This Kickstarter project will only be funded if at least $57,000 is pledged by Wed, Sep 10 2014 9:15 AM PDT. On Thursday, Aug. 21, it had 182 backers who had pledged $16,505 of the $57,000 goal.
Project by Jenny Murray and Laura Tomaselli of Brooklyn, NY
