When the Waters Flow as One

View on the Pragda STREAM site

When the Waters Flow as One examines the resilience and agency of a group of women who endure the devastation of war while courageously working toward peace. In the face of numerous challenges, they confront armed actors, achieve groundbreaking legal victories against sexual violence, and challenge the cocaine economy. Through their solidarity, they foster mutual support and healing to navigate the traumas inflicted by conflict.

These women, akin to the smaller rivers that converge to form the mighty Amazon, are pioneering a new political framework rooted in humanity, solidarity, and love. While such ideals may appear sentimental in a predominantly patriarchal context, they become achievable in a society that empowers women to have a voice.
