Rebel Music Americas
From Tierra del Fuego to the Rio Grande the Americas
are in turmoil, and in the midst of the social and political movements
rocking the region are some amazing rebel musicians. Four of them
take centre stage in the feature-length documentary film Rebel Music Americas (Musiques rebelles Americas) directed by Marie Boti and Malcolm Guy and produced by Lucie Pageau.
Theirs
is the music of the other America, the America of the South - popular,
dynamic, rebellious and often… "anti-American".
It's the rhythms and voices of displaced communities in Columbia,
of "los piqueteros" blocking access to a refinery in Buenos
Aires, of indigenous Mexicans hunted down at the US border, of peasants
staging vast land occupations in Brazil.
