For 5 years I have only seen tears developing this project. Every time I look at my work I get depressed. I must not be as strong as I thought. But I want to denounce violence in Honduras, I need to teach the pain of the victims.
I have to keep telling this story.
Honduras is considered one of the most violent places in the world. Every day in the streets of cities like San Pedro Sula, or Tegucigalpa, the murders, robberies and violence are increasingly present. Ineffective internal politics of the area is unstable, drug trafficking into the U.S. is uncontrollable and unsafe zone of Maras, or control of the Zetas in the border is the closest thing to a daily war. The report of the Organization of American States notes that in a country such as Honduras violent death occurs every 74 minutes without war there was, in 2011, the most violent nation in the world, totaling 7104 killings documented by police.
