[Music]
sometime a song will be dedicated in
couple ended up with the person and
when they were not together they could not even
listen and the song was reggaeton
I could not even dance
they imagine that instead of losing a
person in a relationship we forgive a
person in a violent act can
imagine the pain that this causes
loss the unanswered questions that
they began to get the pain saved and
the impotence of being able to do something many
Sometimes it is not a sentence even if they punish
the person life can not recover
in guatemala every two hours a
Guatemalan because of violence
but it’s not just about data there
stories behind this I tell you that
is Roberto’s favorite song
dead mosque a written was father his
brother with alive
Roberto died in an act of violence
that they felt when listening to this song
Now imagine your family the person
is gone and now his family has to
learn to manage pain while
aware that this is not for
always but how do they do it because it’s not
cut with someone is that that person already
is not this process I call you
expression heal and heal expressing and I
yes I think it can be healed through
the expression and when we express ourselves
we can reach beyond what
we imagine a generation that expresses
it is a connected generation being
connected we can find solutions
to big problems and good for
many years has been voluntary several
organizations the funny thing was that it arrived
a point where everything came together
organization that prevents violence and
works with various institutions and
young an organization that drives the
art in guatemala the key we unite
with the same objective to transform
through expression and clear art
it’s a way to express myself these murals
they are the result of a tribute process
to victims of violence
these murals are urban expressions
who seek internal reflection are
out there to help us
reflect to move us so that
let’s realize that this should not
happen
has a story he interviewed the
family of three victims those
interviews serve to free up for
express the objective these interviews
is that people focus on the
positive part of this that remember the
jokes that the person made the
anecdotes that told the songs that
they listened to the places that visited that
is the key because they stop focusing
only in the painful part and they start
to stay with the positive part
that’s the person I was talking to
at the beginning don roberto is an expression
his memory had been saved by
many years but the time came in the
that his memory came out and was expressed with
a lot of color with the help of artists
volunteers this tribute was made
we interviewed families this helped
to open the dialogue on a topic
from which the mural could not be spoken was
a step towards dignifying this
lost life expressed the pain came out and
now new feelings can enter
who believe that happened after that is a
idea for
transform in the whole world of two
people doing this in Bogota
they make murals to recognize young people
community leaders in el salvador for
recognize young leaders in guatemala
we make murals to recognize life
the spaces are there and you can
be part of this change imagine a
generation without violence full of art and
expression one of the things more
important to make way for the action is
sensitize I do not know how to accept that it is
important because if you do not think so
important that they do here knowing
netflix help step the big challenge is
stay there are always people with
that you have to try to work hard
of this is to establish relationships as
real people who are going to be the same
objective
