Still from La Lucha. Leader Rose Mery Guarita is suspended in her wheelchair from a bridge over the busiest street in La Paz, with a Bolivian flag draped over her. Below her, fellow protesters have their wheelchairs turned around, facing away from the bridge. The bustling scene captures the intensity of the protest, with buildings and a high-rise tower forming the backdrop. A photographer is positioned on a grassy area to the side, capturing the moment that symbolizes the determination of the movement.
