La Gran
Oportunidad
Is the Dominican Republic ready to seize its great historic opportunity?
Twenty-three testimonies from independent voices on who we Dominicans are and how far we can go. Historians, journalists, educators, businesspeople, and artists talk about the past, the present, and the country to come.
The country has changed a great deal in recent decades, and progress has brought challenges in education, institutions, culture, and social development. More than a diagnosis, the documentary is an invitation to build a better Dominican Republic for everyone.
