About the film
Invasion documents the collective memory and willful amnesia of Panamanian filmmaker Abner Benaim’s fellow countrymen, about the 1989 US Invasion. The film is a platform to talk about the perils of sovereignty, democracy and endangered virtues of today’s ultra-capitalist world. Invasion not only explores the mechanisms in which memory is turned into history, but holds a mirror to the present to show how our recent past shapes new Panama.
