Fighting for Peace, a documentary film directed by Valeria Herrador, aims to show the power of reconciliation in story telling. Intimate interviews with survivors of the war reveal that El Salvador was a place where many civilians did not associate themselves with either side of the battle. With survivors like Rufina Amaya Marquez (the sole survivor of the Massacre at El Mozote) passing away, Herrador’s is a crucial investigation of what really happened to the relatives of many Salvadorans during the civil war era and what it means today as a new generation emerges in the United States.
