A movement, not an election. In this feature film documentary, Proposition Amanecer chronicles the history of the El Paso Climate Charter (Prop K). This May 2023 election transformed the political landscape of El Paso, Texas. Through a mosaic of testimonial interviews, this film recounts the story of this controversial ballot initiative: how the organization "Sunrise El Paso" proposed a vision, how it inspired a mass movement, how it threatened Big Oil corporations to the core, and how it resulted in the birth of "Amanecer People's Project."
Written & Directed by MIGUEL ESCOTO; Filmed and edited by MONICA CHAVARRIA; Produced by RAFAEL MARTINEZ. A production of AMANECER STUDIOS. Featuring testimontials from AMANECER PEOPLE'S PROJECT. With support from CLIMATE ADVOCACY LAB.
Amanecer People's Project is a social and climate justice power building organization working for clean air, clean water and community power. www.projectamanecer.org • linktr.ee/projectamanecer • [email protected]
