Las Muertes Más Bellas del Mundo • This Film shares the stories of five artists whose families escaped El Salvador’s violent civil war during the 80s, and found a home in Washington, DC where approximately 208,000 Salvadorans live. These five artists have found in the arts a vehicle to come to terms with the legacy of that war. Avilés and Walton’s documentary follows a poet, a dancer and several musicians; their work, personal archives and stories offer an intimate account of a community in search of its own identity, salvation and happiness.
