Las Sandinistas! was a great documentary and showed a lot of information about the women´s movements in Nicaragua and their contribution in the revolution. I really liked the facts about sexism within the revolution itself and how women even when they were in the same fight as men were prisioners of gender roles.
But as a nicaraguan myself I know that they are other women with amazing contribution to the revolution that werent showed in the documentary, some of them today are still with the FSLN and are pro goverment but still their contribution to the revolution and society in the past and nowadays requires a little bit of recognition.
Still the documentary was great and it truly makes me proud as a nicaraguan woman to see this kind of films.
