Impunity Watch has produced a new video on the Sepur Zarco case and the effect it has had on the women, their communities and justice in Guatemala. “Changing the face of justice, the women of Sepur Zarco” recognizes the journey of the Mayan Q’eqchi’ women in their search for justice and how this road has opened doors for others.

The video shows how the process itself and the demand for reparations is a form of dignifying the women, their word, their history, and voice.
