    • Synopsis
    • Las Brigadistas" recounts the experience of a group of young health professionals who make up the Popular Health Brigade and leave the City of Buenos Aires to work with different communities from the Chaco of Salta. Faced with living and coexisting with inequality in the health, there will be a transformation both for them and for the communities themselves.
      The documentary "Las Brigadistas" addresses an urgent issue that leads us to introduce ourselves to a problem that is spreading throughout the country, mainly in the north of Argentina. Discrimination and contempt for Native Peoples is not a new issue, we have been dragging this social pathology for centuries. In this sense, the film aims at empathy and tells the experience of a group of young health professionals who travel to work with different communities from the Chaco of Salta. The film proposes to reflect on the scope and the need to build popular health, as well as to question the situations of inequality of peers.
