« A mí me han dicho que soy una igualada ¡Pues sí. Soy una Igualada! y ¿qué? »
Francia Márquez Mina, Vicepresidenta de Colombia.
“Igualada” es un documental dirigido por Juan Mejía Botero que narra la vida de Francia Márquez y su transitar entre la lucha colectiva y el poder. En una tierra adolorida y cansada de una guerra que parecía no tener fin, Francia llega a inspirar a los pueblos a soñar con la posibilidad real de vivir sabroso, de vivir sin miedo.
“Igualada” destaca el compromiso con el territorio y revela cómo Francia ha sido una voz clave al visibilizar la marginación de las comunidades negras en Colombia. A través de sus protagonistas, se explora la dolorosa, pero poderosa, historia de la diáspora africana en el Pacífico colombiano, quienes, tras haber sido esclavizadas, reclamaron este territorio como propio y aún hoy luchan por defenderlo. Este documental es un homenaje a quienes continúan protegiendo estas tierras frente a las injusticias actuales.
Después del documental, facilitaremos un conversatorio sobre nuestros sentires, pensamientos y reflexiones, mientras compartimos chocolate caliente y pandebonos. Nuestro objetivo es crear un espacio de escucha activa, aprendizaje colectivo y educación política.

« They’ve told me that I’m an Igualada [1]. Well, yes. I am an Igualada! so what?»
Francia Márquez Mina, Vice President of Colombia.
“Igualada” is a documentary directed by Juan Mejía Botero that narrates the life of Francia Márquez and her journey between the collective struggle and rising to power. In a land in pain and tired of a war that seemed to have no end, Francia comes to inspire the people to dream of the real possibility of living joyfully, of living without fear.
“Igualada” highlights the commitment to the territory and reveals how Francia has been a key voice in making visible the marginalisation of black communities in Colombia. Through its protagonists, it explores the painful but powerful story of the African diaspora in the Colombian Pacific, who, after being enslaved, claimed this territory as their own and still fight to defend it today. This documentary is a tribute to those who continue to protect these lands in the face of current injustices.
After the screening, we will open a conversation about our feelings, thoughts and reflections, while sharing hot chocolate and pandebonos[2]. Our aim is to create a space for active listening, collective learning and political education.

Usage: colloquial, derogatory. - What is a Pandebono ? Pandebono or pan de bono is a type of Colombian bread made of cassava starch, cheese, eggs, and in some regions of the country, guava paste.
