Background

SITUATION:

More journalists are killed in Mexico than in the Ukrainian war; most of these murders remain unpunished.

Since Lopéz Obrador became president of Mexico, 37 journalists have been murdered in the country, a figure that has caused alarm, as it is the highest since 2000, the year in which Article 19 began registering these murders (Article19, Mexico).

BRIEFLY:

On January 2, a group of armed men entered the home of Moisés Sánchez Cerezo, editor of the Medellín de Bravo newspaper “La Union”. They dragged him from his bed and took him away. 22 days later, his

mutilated body was found. The reason: In addition to being a cab driver, he was also the director of the aforementioned newspaper.

OBJECTIVES:

Through a film we will raise our voice to create a petition to reopen the impunity cases and also wants to vindicate the role of journalism in Mexico.
