Our Right To Sing explores the power of music in constructing a collective memory of the civil war in El Salvador. Through interviews, performance, and rare archival footage, leading musicians from such key groups as Yolocamba Ita and Los Torogoces de Morazan recall the history of popular song during decades of military dictatorship and terror. Today, the music lives on in the enduring fight for peace and social justice in El Salvador.
