Synopsis:
The documentary "Üxüf Xipay (The Plunder)" talks about the multiple dimensions within the process of organization of the Mapuche People in Southern Chile. This is accomplished in six blocks or thematic unities, covering 120 years of struggles and history. The first block, entitled "WallMapu" (the ancient territory), talks about all that existed before the Spanish conquest. It’s a story about territory and culture. The second one, "The Reduction", refers to the evil relationship between the Chilean State and the Mapuche People; the consequences of forcing a determined development model to people who live according to other laws and beliefs. The third block is entitled "Reform and Counter Reform", and it considers the diverse policies of land tenancy and use, and their different impact on indigenous peoples in Chile. The fourth one, named "Barred Ways", explains the failure of the Chilean State in its struggle to dilute the conflict with the Mapuche People in the context of the new democratic period. The fifth unity, "Lumber State", reveals the details and impact of the lumber industry over the indigenous peoples. Finally, "The Movement", our sixth block, gives a scope view of the political construction the Mapuche People is developing in order to offer resistance and meaning to their existence.
