Crisis in Nicaragua

A short film about the student led uprising in Nicaragua that began in April 2018 in protest against social security cuts.  After a number of students were killed mass protests broke out culminating in the deaths of hundreds of protesters at the hands of police and pro-government forces. Thousands have since fled the country and human rights violations continue, according to Amnesty International and the Inter American Commission on Human Rights.  

A shorter version was shown on Channel 4 news in July 2018
