The film night is being held in response to the recent state repression in the city of Oaxaca in Mexico. The evening will provide information on recent events, including the organised resistance led by the Asamblea Popuplar de los Pueblos de Oaxaca (APPO).

The film “el enemigo común” (the common enemy) scratches beneath the surface of neoliberalism, at some of the most hidden atrocities in recent North American history. An exposé of repression and resistance, “el enemigo común” documents paramilitary activity against indigenous communities in Oaxaca, Mexico from 2002 through 2005.

The main film will be followed by a couple of Newsreels recorded during the last few weeks.
