Les Minuscules follows the evolution of a civic struggle in Nicaragua, initiated by the peasant movement in 2013, against plans to build the Great Interoceanic Canal, which would slice the country in two, at the foot of a volcano, through farmland, lakes and forests. In reaction to the multiple abuses of power, a variety of social struggles converged and, in April 2018, insurrection broke out. This is the struggle of Elba, Doña Chica, Gaby, Elyla and so many others, from the edge of the trench to exile. What does resistance produce?
