Lila Downs, "Dignificada"
(Mexico/USA) Part performance, part documentary, this video is a tribute to Digna Ochoa, the human rights lawyer whose suspicious death was called a suicide by the Mexican authorities. Lila and her husband Paul taped a series of concerts in Mexico City and Oaxaca, and called in several graphic artists to augment the messages in the songs. "Dignificada" was enhanced by the work of Mario Viveros, who provided the archival footage.
