Minería. Women of courage... and dynamite
Cerro Rico de Potosí (Bolivia) is a territory without law and brutal violence. Here the miners risk their lives in ramshackle galleries to extract silver and zinc.
Those who come out alive believe they are entitled to everything. Then, the hunt for women begins.
Minerita is the story of three women, Lucía (40), Ivone (16) and Abigail (17) who fight to survive in a hell not fit for life. Their only weapon, courage ... and dynamite.
