Alonso López Luna fue secuestrado y desaparecido, el resto de la familia se desplazó forzadamente. Actualmente habitan en San Cristóbal de Las Casas, Chiapas. Sin acceso a sus derechos a la tierra, salud, educación y alimentación. Este video retrata, a través de entrevistas los momentos que vivieron durante y después del desplazamiento forzado.
