The Made in Tarifa Foundation will release a solidarity documentary this Saturday in collaboration with El Califa

This Saturday, May 4th, at 8:00 p.m. at the Alameda Theater in Tarifa, ‘Mi primera letra’ (My First Letter), a documentary by the Made in Tarifa Foundation, will be released.

Directed by Xavi Drago, the documentary tells the inspiring story of the foundation and the construction of its second school in the Indian desert, intended for the untouchable caste, children excluded and marginalized by their country, condemned to a life without rights, without healthcare, without education

One of the main characters of the documentary is our Human Resources Director, Ramón Fenoll. Last year, for his holidays, he decided, along with his daughter Lucía, to undertake a solidarity trip through the Happy Inside project of the Made in Tarifa Foundation.

The ‘untouchable’ children in India are members of the lowest and most marginalized caste in the Hindu caste system. Historically, they have been considered impure or ‘untouchable’ according to the religious and social beliefs deeply rooted in Indian society.

“Visiting a completely different culture is enriching. You appreciate much more what you have. And you see how with practically nothing, one can still live and be happy,” says Fenoll.

Moreover, the documentary is sponsored by El Califa, as part of our commitment to solidarity and cultural projects.

Since its inception in 2017, under the direction of its founder and Tarifa businesswoman, Virginia Toledo, the Made in Tarifa Foundation has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to education and equal opportunities.
