Ignacio

Recreates the town meetings which were a staple of the DivEdCo project. True-life residents debate community priorities, in this case the advisability of building parks and roads before dealing with the severe health issues caused by the town’s water supply. Afflicted by personal tragedy, Ignacio, the common man, finds the courage to challenge the reigning leadership.
