As Agata said in group two, Memo is fight for freedom. I agree with her opinion. In the movie, Memo fight for his village and his people. He wants to protect his village from goverment controlling. People there who live in a poor conditional community and do not have right to decide what they want to do. Even though the river is belong to them, they still do not have right to get the water from there. Everyday they have to walk a long way to buy water with a small bag. Even though it is just a movie, it warns us that we should care about poor community.
In our real world, who will really consider these poor villages. When we steal their natural resources like what the goverment do in the movie, we insist what we do is for their development; but is it really for them or our development? When the U.S goverment begin to built a wall to prevent Mexico people to come here, do they really consider why Mexico people come to our country illegally. The same as the people in the movie, they do not have money to live. They are people, and they also need to eat, work, and have babies. They have rights to be care in the world, but the world is unfair and cruel for them. This is a long war for them to fight for freedom and fairness.
