Return to El Salvador (2010)

Return to El Salvador explores the reconstruction of El Salvador, post-civil war. The film revisits the struggles of the nation and examines what drives over 700 Salvadorans to flee their homeland each day, often risking their lives to illegally enter countries in search of a better life for their families. The film also profiles a number of Salvadorans effected by the civil war. One couple, who fled death threats in the 1980s, finds asylum and a political platform in the United States. The film also follows a different couple who, after escaping the war, returned to El Salvador to work with churches and poor communities.

"Return to El Salvador represents one of those rare documentaries that illuminates a global injustice while providing practical solutions for those who feel inspired to link hands with those activists who dare to follow in the footsteps of Oscar Romero." - Becky Garrison, Contributing Editor, Sojourners and author of Jesus Died for This?

Jamie Moffett in his film, "Return to El Salvador' has documented a very difficult event in the lives of the Salvadoran people, in particular those who are fighting to save their village, and their lifestyle even if it costs their lives. The impact on Jamie personally as well as professionally comes across. He reports the information yet there is more. He provides an opportunity to move beyond simply watching a film, beyond feeling compassion for those effected. He raises a standard, a banner of hope for all to see. Some will catch a glimmer, some will walk with him for awhile. Others will join in the battle. Which are you?

Return to El Salvador misses its mark by constantly straying from the story described in its title.

I think this film is a great primer on the dynamics of the situation in El Salvador (and Central America) and how these dynamics contribute to the current debate over immigration and how our country (the US) relates/should relate to its neighbors. Jamie's thoughtful documentary is a great place to start learning about this vital issue.

Filmmaker Jamie Moffett was in Kansas City to screen and discuss the film at Screenland Crossroads on August 1. The film is a riveting retelling of death squad crimes, but leads to a hopeful outlook for present-day Salvadoran society and challenges US audiences to keep El Salvador in their sights. The film explores a first-hand recollection of the years when El Salvador was inflicted with US- trained death squads leading to the deaths of 70,000 civilians between 1980 and 1992. "Return to El Salvador" follows the lives of two families -- one where a union leader was threatened by security forces and another with a former FMLN militant. The well-organized and flawlessly- produced film steps through the history of El Salvador from the days of the 1992 peace accords, back through years describing large landowners domination of the economy, forward through 15 years of horrendous death squad crimes committed against teachers, union organizers, and peasants by US-trained military forces, and to present-day with the victory of the FMLN presidential candidate Mauricio Funes.
