This program follows the progress of women’s rights and equal employment from the Contra war through the term of former president Violeta Chamorro. A former Sandinista fighter who lost a foot laying mines for the Contras wants the government to give her a job; a woman displaced from her job by men returning from the war objects; another whose daughter was murdered by the Somozist Guard wants justice. Dozens of others tell their stories, as Chamorro defends her coalition government’s policies toward women against criticism by feminists, who seek a wider role in political and social decision-making. Also available in English. (58 minutes)
