How can one create a future when there is none? That’s the question Nobel Peace Prize nominee Rosario Quispe, a Kolla woman, asked herself in 1994 when the mines were closing, and the people of Northern Argentina were left without work, forcing them to migrate to the south. This documentary pays tribute to Rosario, who, through a micro-credit system that was later recognized by Harvard University, established a business organization in Abra Pampa that supports thousands of families from the indigenous communities of the region.
