Overview
This documentary follows the formation of a housing cooperative among the inhabitants of La Lechería, who came to buy land in Mataderos to build decent housing. After years of organization and work, events precipitate: the eviction of the property arrives and with it, the promise of government compensation. But the residents of Mataderos form a front to reject the new residents as “villeros”, with a press campaign and attacks.
