00:00:15,766 --> 00:00:18,310
Holy shit!
The earth is still shaking, dude.

4
00:00:18,394 --> 00:00:20,688
Hang in there, calm down!

5
00:00:21,355 --> 00:00:23,691
Easy, easy.

6
00:00:37,288 --> 00:00:38,539
Stay back, everyone!

7
00:00:38,622 --> 00:00:40,458
Let's... Help me with the fence.

8
00:00:40,541 --> 00:00:44,628
An earthquake shook the nation
once more. Its magnitude was 7.1.

9
00:00:44,712 --> 00:00:47,673
A strong earthquake shook Mexico City.

10
00:00:47,757 --> 00:00:50,301
Mexico's West Coast was also hit by--

11
00:00:50,384 --> 00:00:51,927
Around 13:14, local time...

12
00:00:52,011 --> 00:00:54,180
TRAGEDY AND EMERGENCY
BY EARTHQUAKE IN 19-S

13
00:00:54,263 --> 00:00:57,600
The priority is to rescue
as many people as possible.

14
00:00:59,852 --> 00:01:03,022
It's one of the worst situations
the country has suffered.

15
00:01:03,105 --> 00:01:05,858
Six states were ravaged
by the earthquakes.

16
00:01:05,941 --> 00:01:07,568
Many lost everything they had.

17
00:01:07,651 --> 00:01:10,404
We've seen our citizens
save each other.

18
00:01:10,488 --> 00:01:13,365
Mexico's streets were flooded with heroes.

19
00:01:13,449 --> 00:01:17,119
That's the huge sense of solidarity
that's happening in Mexico.

20
00:01:17,203 --> 00:01:19,789
The hardest bit
will be rebuilding a country.

21
00:01:19,872 --> 00:01:21,916
I know many people want to donate.

22
00:01:21,999 --> 00:01:26,086
That's why we're setting up
a GoFundMe today, Love Army Mexico.

23
00:01:26,170 --> 00:01:28,714
To raise the necessary funds...

24
00:01:28,798 --> 00:01:30,049
We need your help.

25
00:01:30,132 --> 00:01:32,676
I'm here, outside Lionsgate.

26
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,639
We currently have $250,000 dollars.
And I've come to propose

27
00:01:36,722 --> 00:01:40,100
that we jointly add $250 more
to reach half a million dollars.

28
00:01:41,185 --> 00:01:44,563
However, the actor refused
to answer any questions

29
00:01:44,647 --> 00:01:46,398
about the 26 million pesos

30
00:01:46,482 --> 00:01:50,402
that were raised by the Love Army
movement he was heading.

31
00:01:50,486 --> 00:01:52,530
And the houses?
We can't see them!

32
00:01:52,613 --> 00:01:54,782
Juanpa, why won't you grant interviews?

33
00:01:54,865 --> 00:01:56,659
This will haunt him forever.

34
00:01:56,742 --> 00:01:58,536
NO HOUSES AFTER A YEAR!

35
00:01:58,619 --> 00:02:00,412
ALL SELFIES, NO ACTION

36
00:02:00,496 --> 00:02:02,122
I was scared about the project.

37
00:02:02,206 --> 00:02:03,749
So you ran out of money

38
00:02:03,833 --> 00:02:06,168
and you've only built
20 houses out of 50?

39
00:02:06,252 --> 00:02:08,838
You got into this mess on your own accord.

40
00:02:08,921 --> 00:02:11,715
Now, get moving,
and do what you said you'd do.

41
00:02:12,341 --> 00:02:14,802
A lie told ten times becomes a truth.

42
00:02:14,885 --> 00:02:17,763
Where's the money you got from people?

43
00:02:17,847 --> 00:02:20,558
Now it was, "They stole the money!"

44
00:02:20,641 --> 00:02:23,519
...to ask you
about the millions you raised...

45
00:02:23,602 --> 00:02:24,687
We've gotta go now!

46
00:02:24,770 --> 00:02:27,523
Hashtag Juanpa.
What about the donations, baby?

47
00:02:27,606 --> 00:02:30,985
I have no idea what we got
ourselves into. I'm a YouTuber.

48
00:02:31,068 --> 00:02:33,153
Why did they trick me?
They're gone.

49
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,656
It is a question of a certain swindle.

Well, I'm Juanpa Zurita,
I'm a content creator.

53
00:03:09,815 --> 00:03:11,191
Now we're ready.

That's how I like to wear my t-shirt

Juanpa Zurita lives

58
00:03:20,743 --> 00:03:23,662
Since he got that phone,
he's documented everything.

-Can I copy it?

62
00:03:28,208 --> 00:03:29,585
Later, just pay attention.

63
00:03:29,668 --> 00:03:31,253
You can copy it now, guys.

64
00:03:32,713 --> 00:03:34,506
The Vine community was small...

00:03:34,590 --> 00:03:35,674
JUCA
CONTENT CREATOR

66
00:03:35,758 --> 00:03:37,509
...so we all knew each other.

67
00:03:37,593 --> 00:03:39,386
Why is everybody afraid of love?

68
00:03:39,470 --> 00:03:40,846
Jerome Jarre
Thanks everyone

69
00:03:41,931 --> 00:03:43,182
Love! Love!

70
00:03:43,265 --> 00:03:46,143
Jérôme Jarre is a French content creator.

71
00:03:46,226 --> 00:03:51,106
He started breaking the stigma
of what creators could do.

72
00:03:51,190 --> 00:03:54,902
On one side there's ONG's
that are supposed to be non-profits

73
00:03:54,985 --> 00:03:56,946
and aren't supposed to generate money.

74
00:03:57,029 --> 00:04:01,700
On the other side, there's businesses,
pure capitalists, just rooting for money.

75
00:04:01,784 --> 00:04:06,080
The Philippines was the first mission
where Jérôme and I met.

76
00:04:06,747 --> 00:04:10,709
And where I was totally mesmerized
by his Robin Hood-like spirit.

77
00:04:10,793 --> 00:04:14,254
He was like, "Yeah, dude, let's take
the money from the big brands

78
00:04:14,338 --> 00:04:16,966
"and give it to those who really need it."

79
00:04:17,049 --> 00:04:20,302
What I'm about to say, my friends,
is not really easy.

80
00:04:20,386 --> 00:04:22,721
There are 20 million people in West Africa

81
00:04:22,805 --> 00:04:26,141
who no longer have water,
livestock or food, and...

82
00:04:26,225 --> 00:04:28,185
What if we found a plane?

83
00:04:28,268 --> 00:04:31,438
What if we filled it with food and water
and sent it to Somalia?

84
00:04:31,522 --> 00:04:34,274
What happened?

85
00:04:34,358 --> 00:04:37,653
We have a cargo flight. Sixty tons...

86
00:04:37,736 --> 00:04:39,738
I don't know how he got a plane.

87
00:04:39,822 --> 00:04:40,781
PAOLA ZURITA
JUANPA'S SISTER

88
00:04:40,864 --> 00:04:43,158
A kid... I don't know
how long ago it was

89
00:04:43,242 --> 00:04:45,119
but he must have been 20.

90
00:04:45,202 --> 00:04:46,078
What's your name?

91
00:04:46,161 --> 00:04:47,454
-Juanpa.
-Juanpa?

92
00:04:47,538 --> 00:04:48,539
-Salan?
-Salan.

93
00:04:48,622 --> 00:04:49,581
Juanpa...

94
00:04:49,665 --> 00:04:52,960
That's how YouTuber Juanpa Zurita
arrived in Somalia.

95
00:04:53,043 --> 00:04:56,046
After raising 2.5 million dollars

96
00:04:56,130 --> 00:04:59,091
in donations for the #LoveArmy project,

97
00:04:59,174 --> 00:05:02,219
Juanpa arrived in Somalia
to distribute water and food.

98
00:05:02,302 --> 00:05:05,264
We're distributing a total of ten tons.

99
00:05:05,347 --> 00:05:07,349
It's all of this you see here.

100
00:05:07,433 --> 00:05:10,227
Over the last month,
we've done 400 tons.

101
00:05:10,310 --> 00:05:12,980
This week, we're doing together 200 tons.

102
00:05:13,063 --> 00:05:15,065
In total, that's 600 tons so far.

103
00:05:15,149 --> 00:05:19,278
It's 600 tons, ladies and gentlemen,
thanks to the power of social media.

104
00:05:19,862 --> 00:05:21,530
MEXICO - SEPTEMBER 19, 1985

105
00:05:21,613 --> 00:05:25,034
After the earthquake
and the fire in these buildings,

106
00:05:25,117 --> 00:05:28,078
we can see there is nothing left standing.

107
00:05:28,162 --> 00:05:31,040
The Seismological Service
didn't disclose a duration.

108
00:05:31,123 --> 00:05:34,376
We referred to duration
according to what we felt.

109
00:05:34,460 --> 00:05:36,754
Someone felt it for one minute or so.

110
00:05:36,837 --> 00:05:37,713
TRAGIC SCENES OF GRIEF
IN THE FACE OF DEATH

111
00:05:37,796 --> 00:05:40,424
But that's just relying
on human perception.

112
00:05:40,507 --> 00:05:41,508
ONLY RUBBLE LEFT
IN "NUEVO LEÓN" BUILDING

113
00:05:41,592 --> 00:05:45,220
The 19th of September has been branded
forever in Mexico's heart,

114
00:05:45,304 --> 00:05:47,890
since that earthquake in 1985.

115
00:05:47,973 --> 00:05:48,932
EUGENIO DERBEZ
ACTOR AND PRODUCER

116
00:05:49,016 --> 00:05:50,934
For all Mexicans, it's a day...

117
00:05:51,435 --> 00:05:52,478
to remember.

118
00:05:52,561 --> 00:05:53,645
In a way...

119
00:05:53,729 --> 00:05:55,022
PATY CHAPOY
JOURNALIST

120
00:05:55,105 --> 00:05:57,858
We, Mexico City dwellers,
are used to the idea

121
00:05:57,941 --> 00:06:00,444
that it may happen any time.

122
00:06:00,527 --> 00:06:01,487
PASCAL BELTRÁN DEL RÍO
JOURNALIST

123
00:06:01,570 --> 00:06:04,364
As for the connection
between 1985 and 2017,

124
00:06:04,448 --> 00:06:07,159
both times it happened on September 19th.

125
00:06:07,242 --> 00:06:10,913
So there's this irony of having done
the drill two hours earlier,

126
00:06:10,996 --> 00:06:14,583
and this was no longer a drill.
It was real life.

127
00:06:15,667 --> 00:06:17,002
MEXICO - SEPTEMBER 19, 2017

128
00:06:17,086 --> 00:06:20,798
A 7.1 earthquake in Mexico City.

129
00:06:20,881 --> 00:06:24,760
A building on Alvaro Obregón
fell down after the earthquake.

130
00:06:24,843 --> 00:06:26,845
The buildings were moving like this.

131
00:06:27,888 --> 00:06:31,642
There were cars. Their alarms
and the earthquake alarm went off.

132
00:06:31,725 --> 00:06:35,562
People screamed while leaving their homes.
I've got goosebumps right now.

133
00:06:41,777 --> 00:06:45,989
It was impressive because this was
my very first big earthquake.

134
00:06:46,073 --> 00:06:49,409
I was doing a photoshoot,
I went up to get changed...

135
00:06:49,493 --> 00:06:50,327
LUIS GERARDO MÉNDEZ
ACTOR

136
00:06:50,410 --> 00:06:53,747
...and then I felt
the photographer's house start to move.

137
00:06:54,790 --> 00:06:55,916
JUAN MANUEL PÉREZ "MUNRA"
OCUILAN RESIDENT

138
00:06:55,999 --> 00:06:58,585
The alarms went off
when the earthquake had started.

139
00:06:58,669 --> 00:07:00,087
The school was swaying.

140
00:07:00,170 --> 00:07:01,296
MINERVA GARCÍA
OCUILAN RESIDENT

141
00:07:01,380 --> 00:07:04,299
And then it stopped doing that
and went like...

LIDIA RAE
OCUILAN RESIDENT

143
00:07:05,634 --> 00:07:07,427
That's when we got scared.

144
00:07:08,345 --> 00:07:10,889
Reliving 1985 in my head...

MICHEL ROJKIND

147
00:07:13,016 --> 00:07:16,270
I was like, "It can't be."
Half the city was destroyed again.

148
00:07:19,314 --> 00:07:21,400
At some point, I grabbed my phone

149
00:07:21,483 --> 00:07:24,111
and started live streaming
what was going on.

LUISITO COMUNICA
CONTENT CREATOR

151
00:07:25,445 --> 00:07:29,116
And ladies started coming out,
just like in the movies.

152
00:07:29,199 --> 00:07:30,784
And I said, "No way,"

153
00:07:30,868 --> 00:07:35,164
and glass came down from windows,
it started getting ugly.

154
00:07:35,247 --> 00:07:38,917
I realized that the clouds
of dust I had seen

155
00:07:39,001 --> 00:07:40,878
were from collapsed buildings.

156
00:07:40,961 --> 00:07:42,462
And that people had died.

157
00:07:45,424 --> 00:07:47,467
I was at a café, in a meeting.

158
00:07:47,551 --> 00:07:51,430
And I immediately noticed
that the earthquake was still happening.

159

PAOLA ROJAS
JOURNALIST

160
00:07:52,431 --> 00:07:54,933
I rushed to the TV station.

161
00:07:55,017 --> 00:07:57,978
But of course, the city was collapsing

162
00:07:58,061 --> 00:08:00,063
and soon it was impossible to drive on.

163
00:08:00,147 --> 00:08:04,610
At first you think it wasn't that strong,
but then you see the images...

164
00:08:04,693 --> 00:08:07,613
I remember I went home to try to help.

165
00:08:07,696 --> 00:08:08,530
SOFÍA NIÑO DE RIVERA
COMEDIAN

166
00:08:08,614 --> 00:08:10,657
We thought,
"What should we do?"

167
00:08:10,741 --> 00:08:15,162
We thought we were more of a hindrance.
Because there were too many people.

168
00:08:15,245 --> 00:08:18,457
It was brutal
but it was also very enlightening.

169
00:08:18,540 --> 00:08:21,001
Because just like I saw all that pain,

170
00:08:21,084 --> 00:08:26,089
I saw what I had never seen
anywhere in the world.

171
00:08:26,173 --> 00:08:31,136
Foreigners told me themselves,
"We've never seen a nation like this,

172
00:08:31,220 --> 00:08:34,640
"so focused on helping.
Everybody is helping."

173
00:08:34,723 --> 00:08:38,352
About 12 million people were affected.

174
00:08:38,435 --> 00:08:40,395
This number, 12 million,

175
00:08:40,479 --> 00:08:43,523
doesn't only mean
they've lost their assets.

176
00:08:43,607 --> 00:08:45,150
XIMENA SUÁREZ
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF FUERZA MÉXICO TRUST

177
00:08:45,234 --> 00:08:46,610
It's also injured people.

178
00:08:46,693 --> 00:08:50,572
Nationwide, 60,000 homes were
a total write-off

179
00:08:50,656 --> 00:08:53,408
and 120,000 were partially damaged.

180
00:08:53,992 --> 00:08:55,827
Another sad thing we realized

181
00:08:55,911 --> 00:08:59,623
was that many building projects
did not comply with the law

182
00:08:59,706 --> 00:09:03,669
and they collapsed during the earthquake.
That's the great tragedy.

183
00:09:03,752 --> 00:09:08,006
Why were they built without complying
with regulations? Who approved this?

184
00:09:08,090 --> 00:09:12,886
How come the person who said,
"It's okay, build this," isn't in prison?

185
00:09:12,970 --> 00:09:16,265
I was in the process of telling

186
00:09:16,348 --> 00:09:19,142
the audience about the success in Somalia,

187
00:09:19,226 --> 00:09:21,520
and I suddenly logged into my WhatsApp,

188
00:09:22,396 --> 00:09:25,274
and saw all of the messages.

189
00:09:25,357 --> 00:09:30,028
There had been
a major natural disaster in my city.

190
00:09:30,112 --> 00:09:33,991
The earthquake knocked down
this adobe house in the town of Ocuilan.

191
00:09:34,074 --> 00:09:39,037
Under the rubble were 23-year-old
Luis Mario and his grandmother, Victoria.

192
00:09:39,121 --> 00:09:43,250
The situation is serious
in several of this state's municipalities.

193
00:09:43,333 --> 00:09:48,547
The most affected municipalities are towns
like Malinalco, Ocuilan, Tenancingo...

194
00:09:48,630 --> 00:09:52,217
The damages have hurt dozens of families.

195
00:09:52,301 --> 00:09:56,930
That's why, right now, the most needed
items are food and bottled water.

196
00:09:57,014 --> 00:09:57,848
ZEFERINA MORALES
OCUILAN RESIDENT

197
00:09:57,931 --> 00:10:02,853
We went to Ocuilan and it's so sad to see
knocked down walls, churches...

198
00:10:02,936 --> 00:10:06,064
The slide was broken,
so was the rest of the playground.

199
00:10:06,148 --> 00:10:07,190
AXEL VÁZQUEZ
OCUILAN RESIDENT

200
00:10:07,274 --> 00:10:09,359
The school was ruined.

201
00:10:11,069 --> 00:10:15,490
When I arrived, my house was knocked down.
A wall had fallen to the ground.

202
00:10:20,454 --> 00:10:22,456
My house was a cabin.

203
00:10:22,539 --> 00:10:27,044
When I got in, the neighbor's
partition walls had already fallen off.

204
00:10:27,127 --> 00:10:28,086
IVONNE ÁLVAREZ
OCUILAN RESIDENT

205
00:10:28,712 --> 00:10:34,217
And then I heard my house had fallen down,
and without any communications,

206
00:10:34,301 --> 00:10:36,678
you just go insane, to be honest.

207
00:10:36,762 --> 00:10:39,348
I was like, "Oh, God, rocks fell on it."

208
00:10:39,431 --> 00:10:40,307
40 ROADS COLLAPSE

209
00:10:40,390 --> 00:10:42,893
And to think I worked so hard for it.

210
00:10:42,976 --> 00:10:44,728
MARCOS PALACIOS
OCUILAN RESIDENT

211
00:10:44,811 --> 00:10:48,357
I worked so hard,
getting the stones to build it.

212
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,067
And to lose it like that...

213
00:10:50,150 --> 00:10:53,695
The networks were down,
there was no signal at all.

214
00:10:53,779 --> 00:10:57,282
We were all cut off, frightened...

215
00:11:00,702 --> 00:11:04,831
The house is made of wood, so...
It lost its shape, tilted to one side.

216
00:11:04,915 --> 00:11:05,832
JUAN MANUEL SILES
OCUILAN RESIDENT

217
00:11:05,916 --> 00:11:09,211
And the floor of the house
exploded like this.

218
00:11:09,294 --> 00:11:11,797
Everything was totally destroyed.

219
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,424
I had nothing left.

220
00:11:14,508 --> 00:11:18,720
Broken cupboards, closets,
it wrecked everything.

221
00:11:18,804 --> 00:11:22,891
When I had calmed down,
finally calmed down, they said,

222
00:11:22,974 --> 00:11:26,144
"The adobe house fell down
but you're not alone."

223
00:11:26,228 --> 00:11:27,562
"We are here."

224
00:11:28,563 --> 00:11:31,441
And, well... "Don't worry."

225
00:11:31,525 --> 00:11:36,154
"Take the blankets, anything you can,
and let's find shelter there."

226
00:11:36,238 --> 00:11:40,784
I said, "I don't think water will hurt us,
but a crumbling house definitely will."

227
00:11:40,867 --> 00:11:43,328
We all stayed up, we couldn't sleep.

228
00:11:43,412 --> 00:11:47,874
On the first night of the crisis,
it was reported that nearly 200 people

229
00:11:47,958 --> 00:11:50,585
went to the shelter
in the municipal capital.

230
00:11:50,669 --> 00:11:55,674
This resource was like a heaven-sent help
in the midst of tragedy.

231
00:11:55,757 --> 00:12:00,011
The atmosphere in town
was full of despair, you went out

232
00:12:00,095 --> 00:12:02,180
and you felt like...

233
00:12:02,264 --> 00:12:05,392
You felt the sadness, the loneliness...

234
00:12:05,475 --> 00:12:06,435
WENDY CORAL
OCUILAN RESIDENT

235
00:12:06,518 --> 00:12:11,148
The following days, we felt sad
but then people started joining together

236
00:12:11,231 --> 00:12:15,902
to lift the debris in the church
or assess the damage...

237
00:12:17,571 --> 00:12:18,864
01 DAY
AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE

238
00:12:18,947 --> 00:12:22,075
And Jérôme asked me to meet him in L.A.

239
00:12:22,159 --> 00:12:23,577
Did you feel the earthquake?

240
00:12:23,660 --> 00:12:25,078
LOS ANGELES - CALIFORNIA
SEPTEMBER 2017

241
00:12:25,162 --> 00:12:26,079
Fuck!

242
00:12:26,788 --> 00:12:30,167
I felt so powerless and so stressed

243
00:12:30,250 --> 00:12:35,839
given that all these people, friends,
colleagues and family are there...

244
00:12:35,922 --> 00:12:38,133
There wasn't much I could do.

245
00:12:38,216 --> 00:12:41,636
And I remember I was talking
to Jérôme and said,

246
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,763
"Why don't we do
Love Army Mexico?"

247
00:12:43,847 --> 00:12:48,518
After doing what we did in Somalia,
I just could not ignore the situation.

248
00:12:48,602 --> 00:12:51,271
And Jérôme didn't accept at first.

249
00:12:51,354 --> 00:12:54,733
He was like, "This will take
a lot of work and effort.

250
00:12:54,816 --> 00:12:57,360
"You don't know
what you're getting yourself into."

251
00:12:57,444 --> 00:12:59,196
After climbing a mountain...

252
00:13:00,739 --> 00:13:02,991
You can't climb another one right after.

253
00:13:03,492 --> 00:13:05,368
You need to rest in-between.

254
00:13:05,452 --> 00:13:08,622
And Jérôme had just climbed a mountain.
A very high one.

255
00:13:09,164 --> 00:13:12,250
And I insisted, and he accepted,
under the sole condition

256
00:13:12,334 --> 00:13:15,795
that he would only be involved
in fundraising.

257
00:13:17,380 --> 00:13:22,969
Maybe we weren't very aware of what people
would make out of things we proposed.

258
00:13:23,053 --> 00:13:24,304
One thing is saying,

259
00:13:24,387 --> 00:13:27,474
"Look at this video I made,
let's see if you laugh."

260
00:13:27,557 --> 00:13:31,436
And another thing is getting yourself
in more tangible stuff

261
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,481
that really involve and impact
a lot more people.

262
00:13:34,940 --> 00:13:37,776
So, all those people, I don't think

263
00:13:37,859 --> 00:13:41,071
most of them are gonna
make videos because... French.

264
00:13:41,530 --> 00:13:46,743
I made a list of content creators,
public figures, and friends.

265
00:13:48,036 --> 00:13:49,454
Let's call everyone.

266
00:13:49,955 --> 00:13:52,207
PAMBO
SINGER

267
00:13:52,290 --> 00:13:55,627
Well, I'm Pambo,
I am a musician.

268
00:13:55,710 --> 00:13:59,214
I write and perform songs. I'm an artist.

269
00:13:59,297 --> 00:14:01,967
Functional

270
00:14:03,301 --> 00:14:07,055
Juanpa called me and said,
"Hey, I want to do Love Army Mexico.

271
00:14:07,138 --> 00:14:10,725
"And I want to do it at the largest scale
possible. I think...

272
00:14:10,809 --> 00:14:13,061
"I mean, I know many Internet people,

273
00:14:13,144 --> 00:14:17,566
"but not many people in the music,
film or any other industries."

274
00:14:17,649 --> 00:14:23,071
And to be frank, I have a lot of friends.

275
00:14:23,154 --> 00:14:24,406
Oh, my God!

276
00:14:24,489 --> 00:14:26,074
-What do you need?
-A lot.

277
00:14:26,157 --> 00:14:27,075
HANG IN THERE MEXICO!

278
00:14:28,743 --> 00:14:30,245
My God.

279
00:14:30,328 --> 00:14:31,496
That's it!

280
00:14:33,206 --> 00:14:35,792
I'm still nervous. Okay.

281
00:14:35,875 --> 00:14:37,168
I can't believe it.

282
00:14:37,252 --> 00:14:39,546
Okay. Jérôme? Here we go. Five minutes?

283
00:14:39,629 --> 00:14:41,256
-Yeah.
-Okay.

284
00:14:41,339 --> 00:14:44,467
Leave it ready,
I'm gonna post it on Facebook, right now.

285
00:14:44,551 --> 00:14:47,012
"I support you.
I'll use my social media...

286
00:14:47,095 --> 00:14:47,971
DANNA PAOLA
SINGER AND ACTRESS

287
00:14:48,054 --> 00:14:50,307
"...to promote it
and raise the funds."

288
00:14:50,390 --> 00:14:52,892
So, we have this idea to--
To create, right?

289
00:14:52,976 --> 00:14:55,437
So, we have this idea
to create a Love Army.

290
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:56,605
Like a bridge.

291
00:14:56,688 --> 00:15:00,108
Like a bridge between them
and everybody else that cares.

292
00:15:00,692 --> 00:15:04,237
I had short hair, I was with Hannah
at Juanpa's apartment with Jérôme.

293
00:15:04,321 --> 00:15:05,822
And we talked about Love Army.

294
00:15:05,905 --> 00:15:06,781
LELE PONS
SINGER

295
00:15:06,865 --> 00:15:11,661
We invited people to donate.
And we started from there...

296
00:15:11,745 --> 00:15:15,457
Hey, everyone,
a round of applause for Lele, please.

297
00:15:16,666 --> 00:15:22,088
Yo, yo. In seven minutes, we got
17,000 views. That's very impressive.

298
00:15:22,172 --> 00:15:26,343
Mexico is rising, now it's our turn
to help. Here's a little French fry.

299
00:15:26,426 --> 00:15:28,511
-Okay, good.
-Love Army, Mexico.

300
00:15:28,595 --> 00:15:30,263
Go, go.

301
00:15:31,222 --> 00:15:32,098
Go!

302
00:15:32,182 --> 00:15:33,099
We're live!

303
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:34,809
We are live.

304
00:15:34,893 --> 00:15:38,605
Hey, hey, Mexico. Hey, Mexico.

305
00:15:38,688 --> 00:15:41,733
Now, everyone knows
about the earthquake in Mexico.

306
00:15:41,816 --> 00:15:45,153
And it's really
one of the worst situations...

307
00:16:09,177 --> 00:16:11,304
So many public figures joined in

308
00:16:11,388 --> 00:16:15,350
that people no longer knew
who was running Love Army.

309
00:16:15,433 --> 00:16:17,185
And that's when I got...

310
00:16:17,894 --> 00:16:19,479
Juanpa's phone call.

311
00:16:19,562 --> 00:16:21,564
He said, "Hey, I want to do this."

312
00:16:21,648 --> 00:16:24,317
I said,
"I'm trying to help from here, too."

313
00:16:24,401 --> 00:16:26,361
My brother is Juanpa's age.

314
00:16:26,444 --> 00:16:27,570
ANA BRENDA CONTRERAS
ACTRESS

315
00:16:27,654 --> 00:16:31,866
And they're much more Internet-savvy,
so he told me,

316
00:16:31,950 --> 00:16:33,576
"Open a GoFundMe account."

317
00:16:33,660 --> 00:16:36,246
He said, "You've got...

318
00:16:36,663 --> 00:16:38,832
"Seven million Instagram followers."

319
00:16:38,915 --> 00:16:42,877
He said, "Open it.
They'll need lots of help worldwide."

320
00:16:44,629 --> 00:16:46,423
26 DAYS AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE

321
00:16:46,506 --> 00:16:47,757
But in spite of it all...

322
00:16:47,841 --> 00:16:51,052
We were too far off
from what we raised for Somalia.

323
00:16:51,136 --> 00:16:54,431
I think we raised
100,000 dollars in one day.

324
00:16:54,514 --> 00:16:58,226
And I remember we resorted
to a new strategy.

325
00:16:58,309 --> 00:17:03,356
I was contacted by Juanpa
and Jérôme from Love Army.

326
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:08,027
But they bewildered me
because they are too hyper.

327
00:17:08,111 --> 00:17:11,614
They called and said,
"We know you're raising money." And so on.

328
00:17:11,698 --> 00:17:14,659
"How about we join forces?"
And I said, "Yeah, great."

329
00:17:14,743 --> 00:17:18,830
They went, "Great, why don't you send
us what you raised?"

330
00:17:18,913 --> 00:17:22,542
And I was like, "What? I mean..."
I felt a lot of responsibility.

331
00:17:22,625 --> 00:17:25,253
And that's how my story
with Love Army began.

332
00:17:25,336 --> 00:17:29,591
And then Pambo, who is like their momma,
called and said, "Don't worry."

333
00:17:29,674 --> 00:17:33,178
"These guys are revolutionary,
one thousand percent."

334
00:17:33,261 --> 00:17:37,640
Days went by, Jérôme and I were
in my apartment,

335
00:17:37,724 --> 00:17:40,393
fully focused on this, 24/7.

336
00:17:41,394 --> 00:17:43,438
At the start, many people joined in.

337
00:17:44,105 --> 00:17:47,567
And I was one of the ones
who started, along with him.

338
00:17:47,650 --> 00:17:49,736
And I felt a responsibility because...

339
00:17:50,361 --> 00:17:52,822
Many people donated money

340
00:17:52,906 --> 00:17:56,618
because I was involved in this.
I mean, Lionsgate, for instance,

341
00:17:56,701 --> 00:18:00,413
I told them, "You'll give me two dollars
for every dollar I give."

342
00:18:00,497 --> 00:18:04,125
We have currently 250,000 dollars.
And I've come to propose

343
00:18:04,209 --> 00:18:08,338
that we jointly add 250 more
to reach half a million dollars.

344
00:18:08,922 --> 00:18:10,465
They said, "Let's do it."

345
00:18:10,548 --> 00:18:12,926
So that money was doubled.

346
00:18:13,051 --> 00:18:13,927
JORGE YOUTUBE

347
00:18:14,010 --> 00:18:15,470
-Hello?
-Can you hear me?

348
00:18:15,553 --> 00:18:18,014
-Jérôme here?
-Yeah, I'm here too. I'm here too

349
00:18:18,097 --> 00:18:21,768
The director of Google,
the country manager for Google Mexico.

350
00:18:21,851 --> 00:18:25,897
We wanted to be with you guys.
It's great that we could add efforts.

351
00:18:25,980 --> 00:18:27,524
We can get to 500K on our own,

352
00:18:27,607 --> 00:18:30,360
so if you guys put the other half,
that'd be amazing.

353
00:18:30,443 --> 00:18:31,861
That would be amazing.

354
00:18:31,945 --> 00:18:33,071
Amazing!

355
00:18:33,154 --> 00:18:37,534
So, you know you guys bring in 500K,
we bring in 500K as well.

356
00:18:38,326 --> 00:18:42,831
And we're trying to move different pockets
to see where we can make it.

357
00:18:42,914 --> 00:18:43,998
That is really cool.

358
00:18:44,082 --> 00:18:46,626
Wonderful, wonderful. Thank you so much

359
00:18:46,709 --> 00:18:51,172
And let's talk soon. Yeah.

360
00:18:51,256 --> 00:18:53,132
-See you soon.
-See you soon. Goodbye.

361
00:18:53,216 --> 00:18:54,384
-Goodbye.
-Goodbye.

362
00:19:01,474 --> 00:19:07,480
You guys helped us raise
1,374,990 dollars!

363
00:19:07,564 --> 00:19:11,317
That's crazy! Half a million
was donated by Google.

364
00:19:11,401 --> 00:19:12,777
For the first time ever,

365
00:19:12,861 --> 00:19:15,947
a company of that caliber donated
to an independent cause.

366
00:19:18,658 --> 00:19:19,909
50 DAYS AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE

367
00:19:19,993 --> 00:19:23,621
I had no idea that this had been
the easiest part of the project.

368
00:19:23,705 --> 00:19:26,624
We have the money, what's next?

369
00:19:26,708 --> 00:19:30,295
Juanpa's first thought
was to give out the money.

370
00:19:30,378 --> 00:19:31,796
Like, individually.

371
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,924
I don't think anyone ever knew that
but it was like...

372
00:19:35,008 --> 00:19:38,595
"We collected this much, let's go
where the houses fell down

373
00:19:38,678 --> 00:19:42,557
"and we'll hand out the money
to people so that they can rebuild."

374
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:46,686
I remember that the money was raised,
and I told Juanpa,

375
00:19:46,769 --> 00:19:48,479
"Juanpa, what's the next step?"

376
00:19:48,563 --> 00:19:51,190
He said, "Choosing
where the money will go."

377
00:19:51,274 --> 00:19:55,028
Like in a shop, "What can I buy
with this? How many houses can I build?"

378
00:19:55,111 --> 00:20:00,742
And all of that obviously started
to suggest that we had no idea...

379
00:20:02,243 --> 00:20:03,494
of what we were doing.

380
00:20:03,995 --> 00:20:09,709
And during November and December,
we discussed an endless number

381
00:20:09,792 --> 00:20:12,921
of proposals from architects
and engineers...

382
00:20:13,004 --> 00:20:16,925
And through the son of the cousin
of a friend, we met Cha first.

383
00:20:17,008 --> 00:20:20,094
Hello, I'm Carlos Zedillo Velasco.

384
00:20:20,178 --> 00:20:21,304
I'm an architect.

385
00:20:21,387 --> 00:20:22,513
CARLOS "CHA" ZEDILLO
PIENZA SOSTENIBLE DIRECTOR

386
00:20:22,597 --> 00:20:25,558
For several years,
I studied architecture, yes,

387
00:20:25,642 --> 00:20:28,728
but heavily oriented
towards social housing.

388
00:20:29,228 --> 00:20:32,690
And Cha told me,
"You have the opportunity

389
00:20:32,774 --> 00:20:36,319
"to build even better houses
than they had in the first place."

390
00:20:36,402 --> 00:20:39,614
"And if you build identical houses,

391
00:20:39,697 --> 00:20:41,532
"like cubes you replicate,

392
00:20:42,659 --> 00:20:45,036
"you'll hurt the community."

393
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:46,663
We also met Francesco.

394
00:20:46,746 --> 00:20:50,291
Francesco told us about Ecoblocks,
which sounded amazing.

395
00:20:50,375 --> 00:20:52,835
He said blocks
were built in communities.

396
00:20:52,919 --> 00:20:56,673
That's how...
he had built loads nationwide,

397
00:20:56,756 --> 00:20:59,384
He knew how communities functioned.

398
00:20:59,467 --> 00:21:03,096
So Francesco also sounded like a pro.

399
00:21:03,179 --> 00:21:05,807
FRANCESCO PIAZZESI
ÉCHALE A TU CASA CEO

400
00:21:05,890 --> 00:21:08,393
My name is Francesco Piazzesi.

401
00:21:08,476 --> 00:21:11,604
I'm the CEO and founder
of Échale a tu casa.

402
00:21:11,688 --> 00:21:15,400
What is Échale? It's an organization

403
00:21:15,483 --> 00:21:19,028
that provides housing solutions

404
00:21:19,112 --> 00:21:22,198
to those who aren't covered by the system.

405
00:21:22,824 --> 00:21:26,744
To... like that Luis Buñuel movie title,
The Forgotten.

406
00:21:26,828 --> 00:21:28,621
So I was with my daughters, right?

407
00:21:28,705 --> 00:21:31,499
"I got a call from Juanpa."
"What?"

408
00:21:31,582 --> 00:21:33,543
"Dad! No way!"

409
00:21:34,085 --> 00:21:35,420
I go, "Who is Juanpa?"

410
00:21:36,337 --> 00:21:37,171
"What?"

411
00:21:37,255 --> 00:21:41,175
"He's one of the most important
influencers in the world!"

412
00:21:42,093 --> 00:21:43,845
What is an influencer?

413
00:21:43,928 --> 00:21:49,142
So, I'm thinking,
if anyone lost their house,

414
00:21:49,225 --> 00:21:51,185
I know many architects.

415
00:21:51,269 --> 00:21:55,773
Imagine someone knocks on your door
and says, "Hello, I'm Alberto Callage."

416
00:21:55,857 --> 00:21:59,485
"I've come to help you
design and rethink your house."

417
00:21:59,569 --> 00:22:01,696
And they went, "Okay, let's do it."

418
00:22:01,779 --> 00:22:04,449
I asked, "Would you like us

419
00:22:05,033 --> 00:22:07,452
to call up architects
from all over the world?

420
00:22:07,535 --> 00:22:09,120
And design and build

421
00:22:09,203 --> 00:22:12,623
"different houses for all the families
you want to help?"

422
00:22:12,707 --> 00:22:14,208
"Yeah, sounds amazing."

423
00:22:14,292 --> 00:22:17,754
We decided to get them together,
and they knew each other

424
00:22:17,837 --> 00:22:21,632
because they're in the same industry
but they had never worked

425
00:22:21,716 --> 00:22:23,718
the way they were about to work.

426
00:22:23,801 --> 00:22:26,512
Building unique houses...

427
00:22:26,596 --> 00:22:29,599
for unique families.

428
00:22:29,682 --> 00:22:32,935
With bosses who had no idea

429
00:22:33,019 --> 00:22:35,897
of what they were doing.

430
00:22:36,856 --> 00:22:40,151
"But handle with care the next stage

431
00:22:40,234 --> 00:22:43,071
"because managing money
is always complicated."

432
00:22:43,154 --> 00:22:46,324
"Be as transparent as you can because

433
00:22:46,908 --> 00:22:50,036
"people will always be suspicious.
So be very careful."

434
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,998
One of the people who helped me a lot,
and I want to publicly credit him,

435
00:22:54,082 --> 00:22:55,708
was Alex García.

436
00:22:55,792 --> 00:22:57,335
Alex García, a film producer.

437
00:22:57,418 --> 00:22:58,586
ALEX GARCÍA
FILM PRODUCER

438
00:22:58,669 --> 00:23:03,382
And then Eugenio said to me,
"Why don't you go over it

439
00:23:03,883 --> 00:23:05,551
"and tell me what you think?"

440
00:23:05,635 --> 00:23:10,431
So that was my introduction
to this thing called Love Army.

441
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,603
I had already made albums, videos.

442
00:23:15,686 --> 00:23:18,981
So I didn't really think
it was too far-fetched

443
00:23:20,483 --> 00:23:24,112
to handle this with Juanpa,

444
00:23:24,195 --> 00:23:29,117
because I think we had both done
some production work.

445
00:23:29,784 --> 00:23:34,080
So, what could possibly go wrong
if that's all it was?

446
00:23:34,497 --> 00:23:39,585
Make a budget, build a team,
delegate, supervise a little,

447
00:23:39,669 --> 00:23:41,212
and finish in six months.

448
00:23:43,131 --> 00:23:46,008
They showed a huge lack of experience.

449
00:23:46,092 --> 00:23:48,177
Like, seriously huge.

450
00:23:48,261 --> 00:23:52,515
It's as if one of my kids
suddenly decided to raise funds

451
00:23:53,099 --> 00:23:54,600
to give out to the world.

452
00:23:55,226 --> 00:23:57,395
And the next day, first thing,

453
00:23:57,478 --> 00:24:02,024
IRS calls saying, "You got this much money
in your account, you owe me this much."

454
00:24:02,108 --> 00:24:03,067
Just for a start.

455
00:24:03,151 --> 00:24:07,238
And in my view,
I felt they didn't like it when I called.

456
00:24:07,321 --> 00:24:10,616
Even if it was on Eugenio's behalf,
they didn't like it.

457
00:24:10,700 --> 00:24:13,828
"Hi, Francesco. How are you?
This is Eugenio."

458
00:24:15,121 --> 00:24:20,251
And I went, "Eugenio, how are you?
It's a pleasure. I'm a fan of yours."

459
00:24:20,334 --> 00:24:23,546
"Hey, tell me what you think
about Juanpa's project."

460
00:24:23,629 --> 00:24:25,756
And that's when I stopped laughing.

461
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:29,927
And I said, "Eugenio, I think
it's madness. In all honesty, it is."

462
00:24:30,011 --> 00:24:32,930
He went, "That's okay.
Well, we'll keep going."

463
00:24:34,974 --> 00:24:37,476
THE RESCUE EFFORTS ARE NONSTOP

464
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,896
WITHOUT COORDINATION,
BUT WITH WITH A LOT OF COOPERATION

465
00:24:39,979 --> 00:24:42,523
The problem we were facing was actually

466
00:24:42,607 --> 00:24:45,651
that the level of destruction
was huge in some places,

467
00:24:45,735 --> 00:24:47,945
and we wouldn't be able to help

468
00:24:48,029 --> 00:24:52,700
to restore it, and maybe we would
just generate even more conflict there

469
00:24:52,783 --> 00:24:55,328
because 2,000 houses had fallen down

470
00:24:55,411 --> 00:24:58,664
and our building capacity was actually 50.

471
00:24:58,748 --> 00:25:01,209
I had heard horror stories

472
00:25:01,292 --> 00:25:05,504
from similar projects
that intended to help a community

473
00:25:05,588 --> 00:25:08,341
but ended up further hurting
the social fabric.

474
00:25:08,424 --> 00:25:10,760
Because it's often important to decide

475
00:25:10,843 --> 00:25:13,012
how to allocate resources
and who to help.

476
00:25:13,095 --> 00:25:14,222
We built the team.

477
00:25:14,305 --> 00:25:16,891
The trifecta was Pambo
and me as Love Army,

478
00:25:16,974 --> 00:25:20,144
Francesco took care of construction,

479
00:25:20,228 --> 00:25:22,355
Cha was with the architects,

480
00:25:22,438 --> 00:25:25,650
and there was a third arm,
called Fundación Origen,

481
00:25:25,733 --> 00:25:29,820
which was going to handle
the social fabric issue.

482
00:25:29,904 --> 00:25:33,532
Well, I am Mariana Baños,
president of Fundación Origen.

483
00:25:33,616 --> 00:25:34,617
MARIANA BAÑOS
PRESIDENT OF FUNDACIÓN ORIGEN

484
00:25:34,700 --> 00:25:36,202
We started in 2000.

485
00:25:36,285 --> 00:25:41,582
Sadly, nearly 80% of the calls we get
deal with violence.

486
00:25:41,666 --> 00:25:45,461
We carry out this social fabric stage
with a team in the field

487
00:25:45,544 --> 00:25:48,756
that gets involved
with the community, and with it,

488
00:25:48,839 --> 00:25:51,342
they identify the most deprived families

489
00:25:51,425 --> 00:25:53,511
that won't be able...
For example,

490
00:25:53,594 --> 00:25:58,224
elderly people,
families with a terminally ill member,

491
00:25:58,307 --> 00:26:00,893
or a single mother with several kids.

492
00:26:02,144 --> 00:26:04,146
Now, let's go to the State of Mexico,

493
00:26:04,230 --> 00:26:08,651
where they continue
with the slow stage of reconstruction.

494
00:26:08,734 --> 00:26:11,779
Ocuilan is well-known
as one of the municipalities

495
00:26:11,862 --> 00:26:13,572
within the Church Tour.

496
00:26:13,656 --> 00:26:18,619
A total of 45 churches were damaged
by the earthquake in Ocuilan.

497
00:26:18,703 --> 00:26:23,207
Part of the municipality of Ocuilan
is quite all right, central Ocuilan.

498
00:26:23,291 --> 00:26:26,419
But as you go to the outskirts,
the poverty is dire.

499
00:26:26,502 --> 00:26:28,421
People live on 3,000 pesos a month.

500
00:26:28,504 --> 00:26:32,466
So there is a lot lacking
in every single way.

501
00:26:32,550 --> 00:26:37,388
So there's a lack of food,
a lack of education, employment.

502
00:26:37,471 --> 00:26:42,018
And there was a level of violence...
It's still there, things haven't changed.

503
00:26:42,101 --> 00:26:43,436
Domestic violence...

504
00:26:45,730 --> 00:26:47,231
98 DAYS AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE

505
00:26:48,316 --> 00:26:52,069
Sofía, Ana Brenda, Jorge and I

506
00:26:52,486 --> 00:26:56,073
drove off to start our search.

507
00:26:56,157 --> 00:26:59,118
We went searching in the communities

508
00:26:59,201 --> 00:27:01,787
until Sofía took us to Ocuilan.

509
00:27:03,247 --> 00:27:06,375
Pambo is also a super sensitive person.

510
00:27:06,459 --> 00:27:07,710
And super empathetic.

511
00:27:07,793 --> 00:27:10,629
So, aside from the fact
we woke her up too early,

512
00:27:10,713 --> 00:27:13,841
and she slept on the way there,
and on the way back...

513
00:27:14,759 --> 00:27:17,094
And then she arrived with...

514
00:27:17,887 --> 00:27:19,638
Ana Brenda Contreras.

515
00:27:20,431 --> 00:27:22,183
and Pambo.

516
00:27:22,266 --> 00:27:25,686
We all realized that in Ocuilan
there were a lot of people

517
00:27:25,770 --> 00:27:26,937
who needed help.

518
00:27:27,605 --> 00:27:30,191
They always welcome you with so much love.

519
00:27:30,274 --> 00:27:33,486
The first thing they wanted to do
was feed us.

520
00:27:33,569 --> 00:27:35,780
And I feel that's very Mexican.

521
00:27:35,863 --> 00:27:39,825
Ocuilan was the first community
we thought we could heal.

522
00:27:39,909 --> 00:27:41,410
A hundred percent.

523
00:27:41,869 --> 00:27:44,872
At first they started inviting...

524
00:27:45,331 --> 00:27:47,583
Inviting the communities.

525
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:49,960
They drove around with loudspeakers.

526
00:27:50,503 --> 00:27:53,255
We drove a Beetle and we called out,

527
00:27:53,339 --> 00:27:58,844
"Love Army is inviting you
to get a new house."

528
00:27:58,928 --> 00:28:03,974
"Come and we'll rebuild your house.
Come to this address."

529
00:28:04,058 --> 00:28:06,227
No one came, no one believed us.

530
00:28:06,310 --> 00:28:08,687
Say hello. Say hello now.

531
00:28:12,441 --> 00:28:15,611
During that process,
we also interviewed many foundations.

532
00:28:15,694 --> 00:28:18,364
But to me, it was super important

533
00:28:18,447 --> 00:28:20,616
to find something focused on women.

534
00:28:20,699 --> 00:28:25,162
And Origen focuses on women.
So the next time, Origen went

535
00:28:25,246 --> 00:28:28,958
with us to Ocuilan
and they established themselves there.

536
00:28:29,041 --> 00:28:31,293
And slowly drew people in.

537
00:28:31,377 --> 00:28:35,881
Chloe is the on-site coordinator
for Love Army.

538
00:28:35,965 --> 00:28:41,095
So, Chloe was the one
who developed the relationship,

539
00:28:41,178 --> 00:28:44,473
not just with the community
but with the building effort.

540
00:28:44,557 --> 00:28:48,477
I was informed that a foundation
had come to repair...

541
00:28:48,561 --> 00:28:51,897
I didn't even know what.
The point is they repaired houses.

542
00:28:51,981 --> 00:28:55,401
"But I'll ask you some questions."
They asked me some things.

543
00:28:55,484 --> 00:28:57,027
Beyond the houses,

544
00:28:57,111 --> 00:28:59,780
we had to build a sense of community.

545
00:28:59,864 --> 00:29:04,326
We had to make sure
that the people who lived in Ocuilan

546
00:29:04,410 --> 00:29:06,495
communicated with each other.

547
00:29:06,579 --> 00:29:10,791
Because the ones to decide
who would get a house

548
00:29:10,875 --> 00:29:14,170
would not be us,
but the community itself.

549
00:29:14,253 --> 00:29:18,757
Collaborating with them, accompanying
them, carrying out these psychological

550
00:29:18,841 --> 00:29:20,718
and emotional care processes

551
00:29:20,801 --> 00:29:24,597
so that they get the best version
of each person and they get

552
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,140
to have a better life,

553
00:29:26,223 --> 00:29:30,352
and their children can follow
a different path and other choices.

554
00:29:30,436 --> 00:29:33,981
I was like, is that legit or not?

555
00:29:34,064 --> 00:29:36,150
What if they're tricking us?

556
00:29:36,233 --> 00:29:39,487
And when I got interviewed,
I informed them on the state

557
00:29:39,570 --> 00:29:44,408
of my house, they asked if they could
visit. I said, "Yes, it'd be a pleasure."

558
00:29:44,492 --> 00:29:48,245
I talked to my wife, my children.

559
00:29:48,329 --> 00:29:51,540
"There's a source of help, of support."

560
00:29:52,374 --> 00:29:54,793
"I am going, I am going."

561
00:29:54,877 --> 00:29:58,422
And she said, "Mom, why don't you apply?

562
00:29:58,506 --> 00:30:01,050
"Because a foundation
arrived in Santa María,

563
00:30:01,133 --> 00:30:03,469
"and they're building houses."

564
00:30:03,552 --> 00:30:08,182
I said, "No, honey, I can't be bothered."
She said, "Mommy, I'll go with you."

565
00:30:08,265 --> 00:30:10,226
And I applied.

566
00:30:10,309 --> 00:30:15,022
Later they informed me that, yes,
they would build a house for me.

567
00:30:15,105 --> 00:30:17,691
"You qualify for help."

568
00:30:17,775 --> 00:30:20,152
"But then..."
"It's done."

569
00:30:20,236 --> 00:30:23,072
"What do you mean?"
"You are in the project."

570
00:30:23,155 --> 00:30:24,949
That's where this...

571
00:30:25,032 --> 00:30:27,201
This dream began,
because it's a dream.

572
00:30:27,284 --> 00:30:30,996
The hardest bit is getting
to a certain place.

573
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:35,709
The hardest bit is
getting the entire Échale team

574
00:30:35,793 --> 00:30:39,588
functioning in a single place.
Who will be the provider

575
00:30:39,672 --> 00:30:44,426
and how will we be taking
the additional equipment there?

576
00:30:44,510 --> 00:30:48,847
Trucks, rear tractors...
That took a lot of work.

577
00:30:48,931 --> 00:30:54,395
Especially because the houses
in Ocuilan are so spread out.

578
00:30:54,478 --> 00:30:56,772
And because of Ocuilan's terrain.

579
00:30:57,439 --> 00:31:01,026
Échale a tu casa had this awesome idea

580
00:31:01,110 --> 00:31:04,822
of teaching the community
how to build these Ecoblocks,

581
00:31:04,905 --> 00:31:08,158
which would be the raw material
to build these houses.

582
00:31:08,242 --> 00:31:10,869
I got to be in Ocuilan
one of the first days

583
00:31:10,953 --> 00:31:13,706
they were teaching people
how to make these blocks.

584
00:31:13,789 --> 00:31:18,127
And it was so nice to see the community
rebuilding with their own hands,

585
00:31:18,210 --> 00:31:21,797
and with the local soil,
the blocks for their houses.

586
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:25,593
There was this full circle,
sustainable vibe

587
00:31:25,676 --> 00:31:27,636
in this process, so inspiring.

588
00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,055
"Handle the block production," he said.

589
00:31:30,139 --> 00:31:31,849
And I said, "With pleasure."

590
00:31:31,932 --> 00:31:34,226
Dr. Francesco gave me
that great opportunity.

591
00:31:34,310 --> 00:31:38,981
And he said, "Munra, here you go.
Work with it, make an effort."

592
00:31:39,064 --> 00:31:42,526
We made up a team of local people.

593
00:31:42,610 --> 00:31:46,363
And we started using the machines,
we started to make the product.

594
00:31:46,447 --> 00:31:48,699
DANIELA GIRALDO
ARCHITECT

595
00:31:48,782 --> 00:31:52,119
Then we have the house designing
or co-designing process

596
00:31:52,202 --> 00:31:56,206
between architects
and the people from the community.

597
00:31:56,290 --> 00:31:59,084
That's when I realized Juanpa
was like Mick Jagger.

598
00:31:59,168 --> 00:32:01,170
I mean, who is this guy?

599
00:32:01,253 --> 00:32:05,841
Because we were in Ocuilan
and everyone recognized him.

600
00:32:05,924 --> 00:32:09,928
I was even nervous
because the most amazing architects

601
00:32:10,012 --> 00:32:11,805
were coming with us here.

602
00:32:12,473 --> 00:32:15,267
Obviously, nobody recognized
the architects.

603
00:32:15,351 --> 00:32:18,354
And we'll end up doing these two parts...

604
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:20,814
And just like that...

605
00:32:20,898 --> 00:32:21,815
FELIPE URIBE
ARCHITECT

606
00:32:21,899 --> 00:32:26,236
...the architects started treating people
as though they were their clients.

607
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,782
They asked them exactly what they needed.

608
00:32:29,865 --> 00:32:32,284
They listened to them and took notes.

609
00:32:32,368 --> 00:32:33,202
PAUL CURUCHET
ARCHITECT

610
00:32:33,285 --> 00:32:34,328
CARLOS APARICIO MÁRQUEZ
ARCHITECT

611
00:32:34,411 --> 00:32:37,790
You have super professional people
of an outstanding level.

612
00:32:37,873 --> 00:32:38,707
TATIANA BILBAO
ARCHITECT

613
00:32:38,791 --> 00:32:40,834
In terms of architectural design,

614
00:32:40,918 --> 00:32:45,047
they sat down with these families,
notebook in hand...

615
00:32:45,130 --> 00:32:46,298
SURELLA SEGU
ARCHITECT

616
00:32:46,382 --> 00:32:48,634
...doing sketches for their new house.

617
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:53,222
We made the model
so that you can visualize the space.

618
00:32:53,305 --> 00:32:54,139
ALEJANDRO ZARATE
ARCHITECT

619
00:32:54,223 --> 00:32:58,894
It was lovely to see these rockstars
with the locals, going like,

620
00:32:58,977 --> 00:33:00,979
"I think the house would be amazing

621
00:33:01,063 --> 00:33:02,106
JORGE PÉREZ
ARCHITECT

622
00:33:02,189 --> 00:33:03,273
MIQUEL ADRIÀ
ARCHITECT

623
00:33:03,357 --> 00:33:07,277
"...with light coming through, stairs here
and this awesome design here."

624
00:33:07,361 --> 00:33:09,279
And the lady was like...

625
00:33:10,197 --> 00:33:11,615
"No, I don't like it."

626
00:33:11,699 --> 00:33:14,993
We never saw it as social housing
but as proper homes.

627
00:33:15,077 --> 00:33:19,665
Like the house of a family living
to a certain standard, in a rural setting.

628
00:33:19,748 --> 00:33:23,752
We always tried to stay true
to the projects, to the materials.

629
00:33:23,836 --> 00:33:26,463
Give them certainty and trust,

630
00:33:26,547 --> 00:33:30,592
but also provide them the feeling
of what a real home is.

631
00:33:30,676 --> 00:33:33,721
The architect started saying
how he wanted it.

632
00:33:33,804 --> 00:33:34,680
DAN HUERTA
ARCHITECT

633
00:33:34,763 --> 00:33:36,974
Well, we both shared our ideas

634
00:33:37,057 --> 00:33:39,768
I just wanted it to have windows.

635
00:33:40,310 --> 00:33:45,232
Yes, I liked the project he showed me,
but it didn't have any windows.

636
00:33:45,315 --> 00:33:50,154
Seeing these rockstar architects
being deconstructed

637
00:33:50,237 --> 00:33:54,616
by the house owner's opinion was lovely
because at the end of the day,

638
00:33:54,700 --> 00:33:58,203
the priority was that the families
were happy with their homes.

639
00:33:58,287 --> 00:33:59,121
FERNANDA CANALES
ARCHITECT

640
00:33:59,204 --> 00:34:02,666
It wasn't the display
of architectural design to look important.

641
00:34:02,750 --> 00:34:04,710
It was about
what worked for the family.

642
00:34:04,793 --> 00:34:05,669
ROZANA MONTIEL
ARCHITECT

643
00:34:05,753 --> 00:34:09,631
From what I experienced,
it was a co-design between the architects

644
00:34:09,715 --> 00:34:12,634
and the community,
and I thought it was fantastic.

645
00:34:17,306 --> 00:34:19,224
181 DAYS AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE

646
00:34:28,358 --> 00:34:32,196
I think the way Love Army works
reflects your way of doing things.

647
00:34:32,279 --> 00:34:33,113
SANTIAGO FÁBREGAS
DIRECTOR

648
00:34:33,197 --> 00:34:35,991
So, why is that?
Why do you do things like that?

649
00:34:36,617 --> 00:34:39,036
Like, you act without overthinking?

650
00:34:40,871 --> 00:34:44,625
I usually focus
on taking a huge first step,

651
00:34:45,125 --> 00:34:48,796
without really knowing
how to take the second or the third one.

652
00:34:49,755 --> 00:34:55,385
And little by little, every step you take,
you take it giving it 100%.

653
00:34:56,720 --> 00:35:00,724
Because if you decide
to get involved in something

654
00:35:00,808 --> 00:35:04,645
and you think too much about
that first step, you might not do it.

655
00:35:16,281 --> 00:35:19,701
Six months later,
we've just got the building started.

656
00:35:20,494 --> 00:35:23,956
Deep down,
I felt like ripping my hair out because

657
00:35:24,039 --> 00:35:27,626
I obviously come from a world
where everything is instant.

658
00:35:27,709 --> 00:35:30,128
It's so much faster.

659
00:35:30,212 --> 00:35:33,882
-He'll finish the entire house.
-Leave some work for us, Mr. Marcos.

660
00:35:33,966 --> 00:35:36,510
-That's it, a good crack.
-Look, cool, right?

661
00:35:36,593 --> 00:35:40,305
It's a family of six people
who will be comfortably housed.

662
00:35:40,389 --> 00:35:44,226
Are you really building this house for us?
No, I mean...

663
00:35:44,309 --> 00:35:46,395
I think it's a great house.

664
00:35:46,979 --> 00:35:49,523
I think it was a lovely experience...

665
00:35:49,606 --> 00:35:50,566
ALBERTO KALACH
ARCHITECT

666
00:35:50,649 --> 00:35:52,901
...to be able to get close to the locals.

667
00:35:52,985 --> 00:35:55,362
And despite the limited resources,

668
00:35:55,445 --> 00:35:59,032
we tried to build something with them.

669
00:35:59,116 --> 00:36:00,534
Right? Something for them.

670
00:36:01,869 --> 00:36:05,205
-Wow!
-Oh, hell no!

671
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:10,711
Could you help me, please?
I'm afraid of heights.

672
00:36:10,794 --> 00:36:12,546
-Sure. How are you?
-Hi.

673
00:36:12,629 --> 00:36:15,048
-Hi, how are you?
-Fine, and you?

674
00:36:17,843 --> 00:36:22,014
It's very hard to find young people
like you, who like helping others.

675
00:36:22,097 --> 00:36:24,391
They only think about partying...

676
00:36:24,933 --> 00:36:27,144
-Or things like...
-Hey...

677
00:36:27,227 --> 00:36:29,354
-Or both things.
-Both things.

678
00:36:34,776 --> 00:36:37,029
By June 2018, they had built...

679
00:36:37,112 --> 00:36:38,071
293 DAYS AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE

680
00:36:38,155 --> 00:36:40,365
...almost finished, four houses.

681
00:36:40,449 --> 00:36:41,533
04 HOUSES BUILT

682
00:36:41,617 --> 00:36:44,620
And I was able to see,
to feel that excitement...

683
00:36:44,703 --> 00:36:45,621
CHLOE CAMPERO
CULTURAL MANAGER

684
00:36:45,704 --> 00:36:50,000
...among the people, and that expectation
of being given a house soon.

685
00:36:50,083 --> 00:36:53,128
And I got to hear many stories
from the community,

686
00:36:53,211 --> 00:36:56,340
who talked about the experience

687
00:36:56,423 --> 00:36:59,426
of meeting the architects,
seeing them arrive,

688
00:36:59,509 --> 00:37:01,053
seeing Juanpa arrive,

689
00:37:01,136 --> 00:37:03,513
seeing "the artists,"
as they call them.

690
00:37:03,597 --> 00:37:05,849
-Both in this story.
-Long live Ocuilan.

691
00:37:05,933 --> 00:37:07,601
Long live Ocuilan!

692
00:37:16,193 --> 00:37:18,862
This was gonna get crazy.
I knew it.

693
00:37:19,738 --> 00:37:23,992
I didn't want to feel discouraged,
nor did I want to discourage Juanpa.

694
00:37:25,410 --> 00:37:30,123
But that was why when Juanpa said,
"I'll do it!" I said, "Go for it."

695
00:37:30,707 --> 00:37:34,211
Then I saw it coming and said,
"This won't be that easy."

696
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:38,090
You might think that you just arrive
and they're there.

697
00:37:38,173 --> 00:37:41,677
All the families are waiting
in an orderly line

698
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:43,845
to get the building started.

699
00:37:43,929 --> 00:37:44,972
No.

700
00:37:45,055 --> 00:37:46,515
No, it's a huge mess.

701
00:37:46,598 --> 00:37:51,520
We didn't start off fully aware
of what we were doing.

702
00:37:51,603 --> 00:37:54,982
We didn't start with a clear idea

703
00:37:55,065 --> 00:37:57,818
of what each of the steps would be,

704
00:37:57,901 --> 00:38:00,821
for what we were about to do.

705
00:38:00,904 --> 00:38:05,409
People could not see
what was happening behind the scenes.

706
00:38:06,201 --> 00:38:08,704
That means it took many months

707
00:38:08,787 --> 00:38:12,040
to find a team, to find a community...

708
00:38:12,124 --> 00:38:14,084
For the community to let us in...

709
00:38:14,167 --> 00:38:16,128
And people saw none of that.

710
00:38:16,211 --> 00:38:21,717
So a certain mistrust was brewing,
in terms of what was happening,

711
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:26,096
and, little by little,
the media, in particular, started to...

712
00:38:26,763 --> 00:38:29,141
To generate news.

713
00:38:33,854 --> 00:38:36,106
My name is Gustavo Adolfo Infante.

714
00:38:36,189 --> 00:38:39,776
For 37 years, I've worked as a journalist,

715
00:38:39,860 --> 00:38:43,780
as a reporter specialized
in the showbiz world,

716
00:38:43,864 --> 00:38:48,577
I basically report what happens
in my country, Mexico.

717
00:38:48,660 --> 00:38:49,661
GUSTAVO ADOLFO INFANTE
JOURNALIST

718
00:38:49,745 --> 00:38:52,289
I actually didn't know
who Juanpa Zurita was.

719
00:38:52,372 --> 00:38:55,625
I'd heard about him when we went
to see Cirque du Soleil

720
00:38:55,709 --> 00:38:58,503
and my daughter went,
"Dad, it's Juanpa Zurita!"

721
00:38:58,587 --> 00:39:01,256
I'd thought he was Humberto Zurita's son.

722
00:39:01,339 --> 00:39:04,301
So she went and took a selfie with him.

723
00:39:04,384 --> 00:39:07,345
The dude was a bit snotty, like...

724
00:39:07,429 --> 00:39:11,808
Since when was Juanpa Zurita Superman,

725
00:39:11,892 --> 00:39:14,478
to save 50 or 60 families?

726
00:39:14,561 --> 00:39:16,021
Like, why?

727
00:39:16,104 --> 00:39:18,356
JUANPA ZURITA
MISSED THE DEADLINE!

728
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:22,444
EVEN THE DONORS DON'T KNOW
HOW THE 1.3 MILLION WAS SPENT

729
00:39:22,527 --> 00:39:24,446
It was so embarrassing because...

730
00:39:24,529 --> 00:39:27,699
Many people heard of Juanpa
because of that movement.

731
00:39:27,783 --> 00:39:29,242
WHERE DID THE MONEY GO?

732
00:39:29,326 --> 00:39:31,995
OVER A MILLION RAISED
AND NOTHING DELIVERED

733
00:39:32,079 --> 00:39:35,999
Then the nightmare started.
My parents and siblings saw that magazine.

734
00:39:36,083 --> 00:39:40,837
The entire country saw that magazine.
Nobody prepares you for such a massive

735
00:39:40,921 --> 00:39:43,840
media attack at 21,
and I didn't know what to do.

736
00:39:43,924 --> 00:39:47,135
There was Eugenio's photo,
Juanpa Zurita's photo...

737
00:39:47,219 --> 00:39:49,346
I thought it was understandable

738
00:39:49,429 --> 00:39:54,101
that someone would raise their hand
and ask, "What happened with the money?"

739
00:39:54,184 --> 00:39:58,271
I met up with him, and I have
a good radar for this sort of thing.

740
00:39:58,355 --> 00:40:01,525
Now, you never know for sure.
He might as well steal it.

741
00:40:01,608 --> 00:40:03,652
If he did it, I'd beat him to a pulp.

742
00:40:03,735 --> 00:40:08,532
They claimed that a light-skinned,
green-eyed Whitexican brat

743
00:40:08,615 --> 00:40:11,535
had stolen the money
for the earthquake victims.

744
00:40:11,618 --> 00:40:14,871
It was like... fuck.
Why wouldn't the nation be mad?

745
00:40:14,955 --> 00:40:17,082
Hearing that,
of course you'll be fuming.

746
00:40:17,165 --> 00:40:18,333
IN IMPUNITY!

747
00:40:18,416 --> 00:40:23,338
I didn't have a single reason
to believe Juanpa Zurita.

748
00:40:23,421 --> 00:40:25,549
So people started asking, "Hey.

749
00:40:26,174 --> 00:40:29,761
"Where is the money?
Who has donated? Who has invested?"

750
00:40:29,845 --> 00:40:31,513
"Are you stealing it?"

751
00:40:31,596 --> 00:40:35,058
We were indeed worried
about Juanpa's image.

752
00:40:35,142 --> 00:40:39,521
Because you never know
at which point you lose control.

753
00:40:40,063 --> 00:40:42,107
Your intentions are honest

754
00:40:42,190 --> 00:40:47,612
but one mistake
due to ignorance can lead to,

755
00:40:47,696 --> 00:40:49,406
"Oh, so you didn't know?"

756
00:40:49,489 --> 00:40:52,534
"So you made a mistake
and the money was misplaced?"

757
00:40:53,285 --> 00:40:57,330
I couldn't afford to make mistakes.
Nor could Juanpa. No one could.

758
00:40:57,789 --> 00:41:00,709
Otherwise, it could all turn against us.

759
00:41:00,792 --> 00:41:04,296
So I sent Juanpa Zurita a message,
he didn't reply.

760
00:41:04,796 --> 00:41:07,048
I sent Juanpa Zurita another message.

761
00:41:07,132 --> 00:41:09,759
And I was like, "This is dodgy."

762
00:41:09,843 --> 00:41:14,014
Now it turns out that Juanpa Zurita

763
00:41:14,097 --> 00:41:17,559
is the Mexican government,
building houses. I mean, why?

764
00:41:17,642 --> 00:41:18,894
With what money?

765
00:41:18,977 --> 00:41:22,856
And I spent a week or two

766
00:41:23,732 --> 00:41:27,485
saying, "Juanpa Zurita
won't reply to me."

767
00:41:27,569 --> 00:41:30,322
"Juanpa Zurita
is probably stealing the money."

768
00:41:30,405 --> 00:41:33,700
It's so easy to say,
"'I'll go help the victims,"

769
00:41:33,783 --> 00:41:35,911
while you steal the money.

770
00:41:35,994 --> 00:41:37,829
As days went by,

771
00:41:37,913 --> 00:41:41,458
surprise, surprise,
things were getting more real.

772
00:41:41,541 --> 00:41:44,211
To the point that reality

773
00:41:44,294 --> 00:41:47,088
had become, "They stole the money!"

774
00:41:47,172 --> 00:41:50,467
We took the opportunity
to ask him about the millions

775
00:41:50,550 --> 00:41:54,221
that he raised for the victims
of the recent earthquake.

776
00:41:54,304 --> 00:41:55,972
Let's see his reaction.

777
00:41:56,056 --> 00:41:59,267
I wanted to ask you about
the millions you raised.

778
00:41:59,351 --> 00:42:01,102
We've gotta go now! Thanks!

779
00:42:01,186 --> 00:42:02,854
THE "LOVE ARMY" MOVEMENT
RAISED 26 MILLION PESOS

780
00:42:02,938 --> 00:42:07,442
You're such an idiot, Juan Pablo!
What did you leave, bro?

781
00:42:07,525 --> 00:42:11,446
Obviously, we all had the mission

782
00:42:11,529 --> 00:42:14,324
to corner Juanpa Zurita,
every time we saw him,

783
00:42:14,407 --> 00:42:16,409
and bombard him with questions.

784
00:42:16,493 --> 00:42:19,454
Where is the money?
What about transparency?

785
00:42:19,537 --> 00:42:23,416
And Zurita kept beating around the bush.

786
00:42:23,500 --> 00:42:26,628
I'm unsure if he was ignorant
or wanted to surprise us.

787
00:42:26,711 --> 00:42:28,713
Maybe he was unprepared to answer

788
00:42:28,797 --> 00:42:32,050
or he was simply arrogant
and wouldn't talk.

789
00:42:32,133 --> 00:42:37,764
Any of those options were plausible.

790
00:42:37,847 --> 00:42:40,934
So that made us even more suspicious.

791
00:42:41,017 --> 00:42:44,688
Here's a hashtag reaction.
"Juanpa, what about the donations, baby?"

792
00:42:44,771 --> 00:42:47,649
The hard part was that people
started questioning me.

793
00:42:48,483 --> 00:42:51,319
I don't mean strangers,
but people close to me.

794
00:42:51,403 --> 00:42:55,323
So, I was home one day
and Eugenio called me,

795
00:42:55,407 --> 00:42:57,409
asking what was going on.

796
00:42:57,492 --> 00:43:00,203
I mean, "Where's the money?"

797
00:43:00,287 --> 00:43:01,830
ALMOST A YEAR HAS PASSED
AND NOT A SINGLE HOUSE HAS BEEN DELIVERED!

798
00:43:01,913 --> 00:43:03,540
That call was so tough for me.

799
00:43:03,623 --> 00:43:06,501
It wasn't because
it was Eugenio who called.

800
00:43:06,584 --> 00:43:09,587
However, what was going on outside?

801
00:43:10,213 --> 00:43:11,464
INHABITABLE HOUSES

802
00:43:11,548 --> 00:43:14,718
What was the extent of the pressure
that made him doubt

803
00:43:14,801 --> 00:43:16,303
what we were doing?

804
00:43:16,386 --> 00:43:19,806
I was very scared about the project.

805
00:43:19,889 --> 00:43:22,600
I was afraid people
would stop believing in it.

806
00:43:22,684 --> 00:43:24,686
It's like we couldn't see the...

807
00:43:24,769 --> 00:43:28,231
They kept doing meetings
but we didn't see the start of...

808
00:43:28,315 --> 00:43:32,944
And there was always someone wondering
if the houses would be built at all.

809
00:43:33,028 --> 00:43:35,363
And that's when you start doubting.

810
00:43:35,447 --> 00:43:39,034
Journalists caused the greatest impact.

811
00:43:39,117 --> 00:43:43,246
They were looking for something
that tarnished Juanpa's reputation.

812
00:43:43,747 --> 00:43:48,084
Just imagine this kid's dimwittedness

813
00:43:48,168 --> 00:43:50,628
and lack of intelligence.

814
00:43:50,712 --> 00:43:54,299
"Grupo Imagen is grilling me
about the money, so I ban them."

815
00:43:54,382 --> 00:43:56,593
He's not very bright.

816
00:43:56,676 --> 00:43:58,970
Am I gonna lose sleep over that?

817
00:43:59,054 --> 00:44:03,725
Dude, if I'm helping my country,
why are you guys trying to drag me down?

818
00:44:03,808 --> 00:44:07,145
The Mexican media is so sensationalist.

819
00:44:07,228 --> 00:44:11,733
And they end up damaging a whole project
or anything you're doing, or...

820
00:44:11,816 --> 00:44:13,026
It's just a huge blow.

821
00:44:14,069 --> 00:44:16,446
The truth is, I didn't know what to say.

822
00:44:17,030 --> 00:44:20,200
I mean, I didn't know what to say,
at that moment,

823
00:44:20,283 --> 00:44:25,747
I had a lot of information about issues
I was not an expert on,

824
00:44:25,830 --> 00:44:29,459
and I was afraid of giving out
the wrong information.

825
00:44:29,876 --> 00:44:32,253
Often, when you've got bad press,

826
00:44:32,337 --> 00:44:36,674
you might deny accusations once,
but when you do it two, three more times,

827
00:44:36,758 --> 00:44:39,594
it's annoying for you as a public figure.

828
00:44:40,136 --> 00:44:43,765
But the biggest lies
are created through repetition.

829
00:44:44,766 --> 00:44:48,520
A lie told ten times becomes a truth.

830
00:44:52,273 --> 00:44:56,444
Well, look, good actions
will always be questioned.

831
00:44:56,528 --> 00:44:57,570
By anyone.

832
00:44:57,654 --> 00:45:00,824
Because a good action reveals

833
00:45:00,907 --> 00:45:04,953
that other people could also do it
but they are unwilling to.

834
00:45:05,036 --> 00:45:07,539
But on top of that, there is an element

835
00:45:07,622 --> 00:45:11,459
that will invariably follow a good action,

836
00:45:11,543 --> 00:45:13,044
and it's called envy.

837
00:45:13,128 --> 00:45:15,255
Juanpa, why won't you
grant interviews?

838
00:45:15,338 --> 00:45:17,715
We were all morons,
him in particular.

839
00:45:17,799 --> 00:45:20,385
He was the leader
and never thought of this.

840
00:45:20,468 --> 00:45:22,345
If you're the captain of a ship,

841
00:45:22,429 --> 00:45:25,807
people will want to see
how you stay afloat, you know?

842
00:45:25,890 --> 00:45:31,187
Yes, he was naïve. That's a good,
subtle way to describe his behavior.

843
00:45:31,271 --> 00:45:35,733
It is what it is. It's risky playing
with fire. Totally playing with fire.

844
00:45:35,817 --> 00:45:38,987
But it's also
a massive double-edged sword.

845
00:45:39,070 --> 00:45:42,657
Just like the public opinion may be,

846
00:45:42,740 --> 00:45:47,036
"How nice, he's helping people.
What a nice boy. Of course."

847
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,914
The public opinion may also lean towards,

848
00:45:50,665 --> 00:45:53,501
"Unprofessional, inept, crook."

849
00:45:53,585 --> 00:45:58,465
This 60-year-old man
went viral on social media with this photo

850
00:45:58,548 --> 00:46:01,801
that Juanpa Zurita posted himself
as a symbol of hope,

851
00:46:01,885 --> 00:46:03,928
with the launch of Love Army Mexico.

852
00:46:04,012 --> 00:46:06,931
-What did Juanpa and Love Army give you?
-Nothing.

853
00:46:07,015 --> 00:46:10,059
The people who helped
were from the government.

854
00:46:10,143 --> 00:46:14,689
If you received help from the government,
you could rebuild your house with it.

855
00:46:14,772 --> 00:46:17,942
But this was for people
who hadn't received any support.

856
00:46:18,026 --> 00:46:19,402
So...

857
00:46:19,486 --> 00:46:23,406
We couldn't rebuild that man's house.

858
00:46:23,490 --> 00:46:26,618
But he was the poster child
of our project,

859
00:46:26,701 --> 00:46:30,246
and Juan Pablo had plastered his face
all over the place.

860
00:46:30,330 --> 00:46:33,833
The whole time, there's been
one problem after another...

861
00:46:33,917 --> 00:46:38,963
I don't know how they did it,
but my phone rang 24 hours a day.

862
00:46:39,047 --> 00:46:42,008
"So, tell me, how much money
has Juanpa given you?"

863
00:46:42,091 --> 00:46:44,344
"It's not enough
for the project, right?"

864
00:46:44,427 --> 00:46:49,057
We realized the progress was slow.
We realized everything was delayed.

865
00:46:49,140 --> 00:46:51,768
And I remember this time
at Pambo's place

866
00:46:51,851 --> 00:46:56,689
when she and I were researching the cost
per square meter of social housing.

867
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:03,863
I told him, "You got into this mess
on your own accord."

868
00:47:03,947 --> 00:47:06,574
"Now, get moving."

869
00:47:06,658 --> 00:47:10,995
"And there won't be any more photos,
but you'll have to work for three years

870
00:47:11,079 --> 00:47:13,248
"to do what you said you'd do."

871
00:47:16,417 --> 00:47:18,586
540 DAYS AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE

872
00:47:18,670 --> 00:47:19,712
15 HOUSES BUILT

873
00:47:19,796 --> 00:47:23,967
So the architects design,
sketch the house,

874
00:47:24,050 --> 00:47:28,221
what the house will look like
for this specific family.

875
00:47:28,304 --> 00:47:32,517
What foundations are there
in order to build the house?

876
00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:36,563
And then, what framework is needed

877
00:47:36,646 --> 00:47:41,484
for the house that the architects designed
in order to build it?

878
00:47:41,568 --> 00:47:43,194
It is stupid

879
00:47:43,987 --> 00:47:46,864
to think that a house
meant for the mountain

880
00:47:46,948 --> 00:47:50,618
is built the same way
as a house by the river.

881
00:47:50,702 --> 00:47:52,453
Houses...

882
00:47:52,537 --> 00:47:54,163
Can't be the same

883
00:47:55,623 --> 00:47:57,041
in different settings.

884
00:47:57,125 --> 00:47:59,502
That's the big problem
of social housing.

885
00:47:59,586 --> 00:48:03,631
They sometimes didn't get
that things were meant to be done one way

886
00:48:03,715 --> 00:48:05,633
but then they changed their minds.

887
00:48:05,717 --> 00:48:09,596
The project, on paper,
is stunning.

888
00:48:10,263 --> 00:48:12,807
That's what I loved visually,

889
00:48:12,890 --> 00:48:16,311
what made me fall in love
with these houses,

890
00:48:16,394 --> 00:48:18,646
with their wooden doors and windows.

891
00:48:18,730 --> 00:48:20,857
So warm, so lovely.

892
00:48:20,940 --> 00:48:24,193
Well, I fell out of love
when the first bout of rain came.

893
00:48:28,072 --> 00:48:32,201
Every morning, I got calls,
WhatsApps, videos

894
00:48:32,285 --> 00:48:35,872
of water pouring down
from the ceiling.

895
00:48:35,955 --> 00:48:38,041
getting through the windows.

896
00:48:39,167 --> 00:48:41,252
The problem here is the weather.

897
00:48:41,836 --> 00:48:44,047
The water is dripping down the walls.

898
00:48:44,130 --> 00:48:46,466
-And there are huge puddles.
-Yes.

899
00:48:46,549 --> 00:48:50,511
The rain has intensified
in the region, so we must strengthen

900
00:48:50,595 --> 00:48:54,766
the waterproofing in all houses
and make sure this never happens again.

901
00:48:54,849 --> 00:48:57,518
MARCH 2020
THREE YEARS AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE

902
00:48:57,602 --> 00:48:59,020
25 HOUSES BUILT

903
00:48:59,103 --> 00:49:01,606
And to top it all off,
we have a pandemic.

904
00:49:01,689 --> 00:49:05,026
Today marks the national day
of social distancing

905
00:49:05,109 --> 00:49:09,405
as a measure to curtail the spread
of Covid-19 in our country.

906
00:49:09,489 --> 00:49:12,867
Covid caught us all off-guard.

907
00:49:12,950 --> 00:49:15,870
It happened overnight.

908
00:49:15,953 --> 00:49:19,791
And we had to apply
a whole series of protocols,

909
00:49:19,874 --> 00:49:22,001
a series of care measures

910
00:49:22,085 --> 00:49:26,089
and the pace became a lot slower.

911
00:49:26,172 --> 00:49:28,966
So Francesco suddenly calls me and says

912
00:49:29,842 --> 00:49:33,971
that he needs... Like, when will
the next transfer take place?

913
00:49:34,847 --> 00:49:37,975
And I was like, "What transfer?"

914
00:49:38,059 --> 00:49:40,770
You've already got the money.
Your money.

915
00:49:40,853 --> 00:49:43,940
He said, "No, I've run out of money.

916
00:49:44,023 --> 00:49:45,692
"In fact, you owe me.

917
00:49:45,775 --> 00:49:47,110
"So if it was ten pesos,

918
00:49:47,193 --> 00:49:50,655
"you owe me three extra pesos
because that's what we've spent."

919
00:49:51,364 --> 00:49:54,784
And I said, "Francesco,
but we've just built half the houses.

920
00:49:56,077 --> 00:49:58,579
"How come you've spent all that money?

921
00:49:58,663 --> 00:50:00,957
"That was the money for all the houses.

922
00:50:01,499 --> 00:50:05,712
"Why only tell me this
once the money's run out and I owe you?"

923
00:50:06,963 --> 00:50:10,842
So Juanpa and I discussed at length
what we ought to do

924
00:50:10,925 --> 00:50:14,053
because the thought
of carrying on building with money

925
00:50:14,137 --> 00:50:18,224
that we apparently owed,
made us even consider

926
00:50:18,891 --> 00:50:21,144
that we had to stop everything.

927
00:50:22,353 --> 00:50:25,481
-In the worst case scenario. This is it.
-Okay.

928
00:50:25,565 --> 00:50:30,027
This doesn't include
the adjustment nor any of the points

929
00:50:30,111 --> 00:50:34,073
we're negotiating
with Francesco. I mean...

930
00:50:34,157 --> 00:50:36,200
Yes, the so-called difference.

931
00:50:36,284 --> 00:50:38,161
-We don't know that for sure.
-Okay.

932
00:50:38,244 --> 00:50:40,037
JUANPA, PAMBO - LOVE ARMY MEXICO
CHLOE CAMPERO - CULTURAL MANAGER

933
00:50:40,121 --> 00:50:41,539
-Hi.
-Chloe, how are you?

934
00:50:41,622 --> 00:50:42,874
Fine, and you?

935
00:50:42,957 --> 00:50:46,669
We will be facing, overall,
some critical months.

936
00:50:46,753 --> 00:50:49,672
Everybody's income has, right now,

937
00:50:49,756 --> 00:50:52,425
dwindled throughout
all levels and positions.

938
00:50:52,508 --> 00:50:55,261
We're very worried
about the situation in Ocuilan.

939
00:50:55,344 --> 00:50:57,805
We don't want to leave them unsupported.

940
00:50:58,598 --> 00:51:00,683
"Manuel, they're fooling you."

941
00:51:01,184 --> 00:51:02,977
I said, "Why are they fooling me?"

942
00:51:03,060 --> 00:51:04,604
"Because they left."

943
00:51:04,687 --> 00:51:06,439
I said,
"No, this is not over."

944
00:51:06,522 --> 00:51:09,442
A supporting foundation just left,
that's all.

945
00:51:09,525 --> 00:51:11,569
They were helping us.

946
00:51:12,153 --> 00:51:14,739
"But the project continues."
"I don't think so."

947
00:51:17,033 --> 00:51:21,370
The tourist centers came to a standstill.

948
00:51:21,454 --> 00:51:24,791
Commercial activities stopped, too.

949
00:51:24,874 --> 00:51:27,710
That's what Ocuilan's inhabitants live on.

950
00:51:27,794 --> 00:51:30,087
Without knowing much of this business,

951
00:51:30,171 --> 00:51:33,382
my common sense would tell me

952
00:51:33,466 --> 00:51:37,595
that when you've spent half the budget
but haven't finished half the houses,

953
00:51:37,678 --> 00:51:41,182
you'd call and say,
"Hey, we're having this problem."

954
00:51:41,265 --> 00:51:43,100
But that was never discussed.

955
00:51:43,184 --> 00:51:46,979
They just said, "We spent the money
but only built half the houses.

956
00:51:47,063 --> 00:51:49,357
"And now I need you
to double that amount."

957
00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:52,235
That was a terrifying moment, I mean...

958
00:51:53,027 --> 00:51:56,280
We couldn't control delays
because each time it was like,

959
00:51:56,364 --> 00:51:58,616
"Okay, take some more time."

960
00:51:58,699 --> 00:52:02,662
But we were the ones
picking up the pieces.

961
00:52:04,121 --> 00:52:05,873
From what I hear,

962
00:52:05,957 --> 00:52:08,793
don't you have a site supervisor?
That guy?

963
00:52:09,502 --> 00:52:12,171
And Juan Pablo goes, "What's that?"

964
00:52:12,255 --> 00:52:16,259
You don't know site supervisors existed.
So, what do they do?

965
00:52:16,342 --> 00:52:17,927
They supervise building sites!

966
00:52:18,010 --> 00:52:22,849
Pambo and I looked at each other like,
"Why hadn't we heard about those?

967
00:52:22,932 --> 00:52:25,351
"Juanpa, allow me to introduce to you...

968

00:52:32,149 --> 00:52:35,069

MIKEL MUÑOZ
CONSTRUCTION SUPERVISOR. INGENOR

972
00:52:39,657 --> 00:52:41,367
I'm Mikel Muñoz.

973
00:52:41,450 --> 00:52:44,453
I'm the CEO of Ingenor Mexico.

974
00:52:44,537 --> 00:52:47,999
It's an architecture, engineering
and project management company.

975
00:52:48,082 --> 00:52:51,335
Obviously, Mikel's first question was,

976
00:52:51,419 --> 00:52:54,422
"Okay, but...
what does your contract say?"

977
00:52:55,715 --> 00:52:58,718
And we were like,
"We don't have a contract!"

978
00:52:59,427 --> 00:53:02,597
"But we shook hands
and we're all great buddies!"

JUANPA, PAMBO - LOVE ARMY MEXICO
MIKEL MUÑOZ - SUPERVISOR

980
00:53:04,557 --> 00:53:06,309
-Pambito!
-Hello, you hear me?

981
00:53:06,392 --> 00:53:08,019
-Yes.
-Okay.

982
00:53:08,102 --> 00:53:11,564
The gist of the report
is the analysis of each house.

983
00:53:11,647 --> 00:53:15,526
Price by price. Measurement
by measurement of all the houses.

984
00:53:15,610 --> 00:53:18,362
The general conclusion
about all the houses,

985
00:53:18,446 --> 00:53:20,197
you'll see in a moment...

986
00:53:20,281 --> 00:53:22,241
Échale's price is above

987
00:53:22,325 --> 00:53:24,660
the current market value.

988
00:53:24,744 --> 00:53:28,539
So, basically, they're priced
above other building companies.

989
00:53:30,166 --> 00:53:32,293
That's when I felt afraid, you know?

990
00:53:33,127 --> 00:53:37,006
Because the thought of not finishing
the project crossed my mind.

991
00:53:38,090 --> 00:53:43,262
I thought we'd never finish
because we wouldn't have enough resources.

992
00:53:44,263 --> 00:53:47,183
And Mikel told us

993
00:53:47,266 --> 00:53:50,686
that we had to thoroughly audit

994
00:53:50,770 --> 00:53:53,773
Échale's work.

995
00:53:56,817 --> 00:53:58,444
And that's how it started.

996
00:54:00,279 --> 00:54:02,114
And we stopped the construction.

997
00:54:02,698 --> 00:54:04,033
We stopped it.

CARLOS ZEDILLO - PIENZA SOSTENIBLE

999
00:54:05,284 --> 00:54:06,953
Wow, that's a double call.

1000
00:54:07,036 --> 00:54:08,079
Hiya.

1001
00:54:08,162 --> 00:54:09,747
-Hi.
-Hey, what's the deal?

1002
00:54:09,830 --> 00:54:13,167
Out of need, and in order to review

1003
00:54:13,250 --> 00:54:17,171
Échale a tu casa's work,
we stopped the project.

1004
00:54:17,254 --> 00:54:21,425
You're modifying
the project again, Pambo.

1005
00:54:21,509 --> 00:54:24,178
And that makes me very nervous.

1006
00:54:24,261 --> 00:54:27,181
Especially at the stage
we're at, you know?

1007
00:54:27,264 --> 00:54:29,392
I have already hired people,

1008
00:54:29,475 --> 00:54:33,562
it's done, and we have many new projects
that have been cut back.

1009
00:54:33,646 --> 00:54:37,149
"The money won't be enough."
"We won't finish on time."

1010
00:54:37,233 --> 00:54:38,734
"We're behind schedule."

1011
00:54:38,818 --> 00:54:41,320
"It's Cha's fault.
It's the architects' fault."

1012
00:54:41,404 --> 00:54:44,281
It's a difficult project.

1013
00:54:44,365 --> 00:54:47,159
It's a slow project.

1014
00:54:47,243 --> 00:54:49,704
The 49 houses weren't built in a flash.

1015
00:54:49,787 --> 00:54:51,539
That's obviously impossible.

1016
00:54:51,622 --> 00:54:53,207
We built them in blocks.

1017
00:54:53,290 --> 00:54:55,835
IVÁN RAMÍREZ - MIKEL MUÑOZ -
FRANCESCO PIAZZESI

1018
00:54:55,918 --> 00:54:58,421
We feel, and I don't mean to offend,

1019
00:54:58,504 --> 00:55:01,924
that you're looking for details

1020
00:55:02,008 --> 00:55:04,844
that generate cost overruns
on our end.

1021
00:55:04,927 --> 00:55:09,515
Your starting point is weak, it's clear
you didn't understand what I told you.

1022
00:55:09,598 --> 00:55:11,517
If we'd done what you're saying,

1023
00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:14,437
the difference wouldn't be 20,
but 40 percent.

1024
00:55:14,520 --> 00:55:18,149
You should tell us what you believe
to be the causes

1025
00:55:18,232 --> 00:55:20,443
of that great discrepancy,

1026
00:55:20,526 --> 00:55:23,654
because that's what's confusing the team.

1027
00:55:23,738 --> 00:55:26,615
I mean, right now,
I'm a bit frightened to hear

1028
00:55:26,699 --> 00:55:28,659
that it's 25 percent.

1029
00:55:28,743 --> 00:55:31,787
Because we've been losing money

1030
00:55:31,871 --> 00:55:35,207
throughout the year
while you have been making money.

1031
00:55:35,291 --> 00:55:39,086
And Carlos, we haven't mentioned
the money we've put into this.

1032
00:55:39,170 --> 00:55:41,088
-Let's get this straight.
-Okay.

1033
00:55:41,172 --> 00:55:43,382
That's why we must check this.

1034
00:55:43,466 --> 00:55:46,677
I'm just saying
I wasn't aware of this, Francesco.

1035
00:55:46,761 --> 00:55:48,596
I just... I understand you.

1036
00:55:48,679 --> 00:55:52,767
But we must check because this stands out.

1037
00:55:53,392 --> 00:55:55,895
Horrible arguments ensued,

1038
00:55:56,395 --> 00:55:59,148
particularly between Francesco and Cha.

1039
00:55:59,774 --> 00:56:02,777
And it started to look like there was

1040
00:56:03,652 --> 00:56:07,031
no possible solution
because every time we had a meeting,

1041
00:56:07,114 --> 00:56:09,992
one would blame the other,
and vice versa.

1042
00:56:10,076 --> 00:56:14,205
The supervisors arrived,
with a social housing assessment sheet.

1043
00:56:14,288 --> 00:56:16,582
The houses were
supposed to cost "X" amount.

1044
00:56:16,665 --> 00:56:21,295
The average square meter cost
was "X" amount.

1045
00:56:21,378 --> 00:56:25,341
And they had the averages,
the same ones from 25 years ago.

1046
00:56:25,424 --> 00:56:27,176
It's not that they're wrong.

1047
00:56:27,259 --> 00:56:29,929
It's just that
they don't quite apply here.

1048
00:56:30,012 --> 00:56:32,515
So that sparked an argument.

1049
00:56:32,598 --> 00:56:36,560
The other day, you didn't tell us
the truth either, Francesco.

1050
00:56:36,644 --> 00:56:38,395
Are you calling me a liar?

1051
00:56:38,479 --> 00:56:41,524
If you are,
this conversation ends right now.

1052
00:56:41,607 --> 00:56:44,902
Well, I'm sorry,
I didn't mean to call you a liar,

1053
00:56:44,985 --> 00:56:46,737
and don't be so sensitive.

1054
00:56:46,821 --> 00:56:50,449
We either respect each other,
or right now,

1055
00:56:50,533 --> 00:56:53,661
we end all conversations,

1056
00:56:53,744 --> 00:56:55,204
all negotiations,

1057
00:56:55,287 --> 00:56:57,081
and fend for yourselves.

1058
00:56:57,164 --> 00:56:58,707
The houses are there

1059
00:56:58,791 --> 00:57:01,210
and you're arriving after the fact.

1060
00:57:01,293 --> 00:57:02,837
The houses are finished.

1061
00:57:02,920 --> 00:57:05,840
You guys are doing a forensic audit.

1062
00:57:06,507 --> 00:57:10,219
Francesco, remember it took you
over a year to send us

1063
00:57:10,302 --> 00:57:13,639
the budgets for the houses,

1064
00:57:13,722 --> 00:57:15,724
even though Pambo requested them.

1065
00:57:15,808 --> 00:57:18,602
We have an admin issue here.

1066
00:57:18,686 --> 00:57:22,857
You said we called you a liar,
we'd never do such a thing.

1067
00:57:22,940 --> 00:57:27,236
I know you're making sacrifices,
just like everyone else in this project.

1068
00:57:27,319 --> 00:57:29,864
But we just have to focus

1069
00:57:29,947 --> 00:57:33,450
on finding a way to stop the delays

1070
00:57:33,534 --> 00:57:36,245
and we can firmly progress

1071
00:57:36,328 --> 00:57:38,539
in order to complete the project.

1072
00:57:38,622 --> 00:57:40,541
Those conversations were tense.

1073
00:57:40,624 --> 00:57:43,836
Because, on the other hand, I said,

1074
00:57:43,919 --> 00:57:48,090
"This architect helped me, will I
tell them their house won't be built?"

1075
00:57:48,174 --> 00:57:50,384
There were times when...

1076
00:57:50,467 --> 00:57:53,804
I nearly called Juanpa
and said, "You know what? We're out."

1077
00:57:53,888 --> 00:57:55,723
We're severely delayed.

1078
00:57:55,806 --> 00:57:58,851
I have the press and the public
breathing down my neck.

1079
00:57:58,934 --> 00:58:02,146
And then, in private,
you tell me it will take longer?

1080
00:58:03,480 --> 00:58:04,398
I'm screwed.

1081
00:58:04,940 --> 00:58:06,984
Juanpa was crucified by the media.

1082
00:58:07,067 --> 00:58:08,861
They took him off the cross later.

1083
00:58:08,944 --> 00:58:12,573
But he was crucified
for a long while, right?

1084
00:58:12,656 --> 00:58:14,575
Why? Why?

1085
00:58:22,082 --> 00:58:24,835
The worry and anxiety levels increased

1086
00:58:24,919 --> 00:58:26,921
when we saw Juanpa in that state,

1087
00:58:27,004 --> 00:58:29,715
how secretive he was about the issue.

1088
00:58:29,798 --> 00:58:34,011
He wouldn't quite let us in.

1089
00:58:34,511 --> 00:58:38,265
I don't think
he was even aware himself back then,

1090
00:58:38,349 --> 00:58:40,434
of how things were playing out.

1091
00:58:40,517 --> 00:58:42,811
And that worried me three times more.

1092
00:58:42,895 --> 00:58:47,233
I thought, "Something's terribly wrong,
something's worrying him too much,

1093
00:58:47,316 --> 00:58:48,776
overwhelming him.

1094
00:58:48,859 --> 00:58:51,320
His silence wasn't a sign of avoidance.

1095
00:58:51,403 --> 00:58:54,114
I think his silence was due
to these blockages

1096
00:58:54,198 --> 00:58:56,408
present in the project.

1097
00:58:56,867 --> 00:59:00,162
Juanpa learned that the world
isn't all peaches and cream.

1098
00:59:01,372 --> 00:59:07,336
Social networks have widened the gaps
and divisions in society.

1099
00:59:07,419 --> 00:59:09,755
This isn't just a Mexican issue.

1100
00:59:09,838 --> 00:59:13,634
But in journalism,
we have indeed reached a point

1101
00:59:13,717 --> 00:59:17,304
where clashing statements

1102
00:59:17,388 --> 00:59:19,348
are highlighted and prioritized.

1103
00:59:19,431 --> 00:59:22,184
Often to the detriment of actual facts.

1104
00:59:22,268 --> 00:59:25,813
In a society where there is little debate,

1105
00:59:25,896 --> 00:59:28,732
where there is no debate with arguments

1106
00:59:28,816 --> 00:59:31,277
but instead resorts to disqualification...

1107
00:59:31,360 --> 00:59:33,654
LOURDES MORALES
ACCOUNTABILITY NETWORK COORDINATOR

1108
00:59:33,737 --> 00:59:37,324
...where there isn't a culture
of choosing quality information,

1109
00:59:37,408 --> 00:59:42,496
I don't think any of this
truly serves democratization,

1110
00:59:42,579 --> 00:59:45,291
but rather the opposite.

1111
00:59:50,629 --> 00:59:53,590
"That thieving rat,
Juanpa Zurita, has been found out,

1112
00:59:53,674 --> 00:59:55,509
"yet keeps boasting about building?"

1113
00:59:55,592 --> 00:59:58,429
"At that rate,
he'll deliver the houses in 50 years."

1114
00:59:59,054 --> 01:00:02,683
"YouTuber Juanpa Zurita promised
to build 50 houses for the victims

1115
01:00:02,766 --> 01:00:05,102
"of September 19
but he's only built four."

1116
01:00:05,185 --> 01:00:09,023
Another one says, "What are they
waiting for? Put him in prison."

1117
01:00:12,985 --> 01:00:14,820
What's happening here is,

1118
01:00:15,821 --> 01:00:19,325
the media starts the domino effect

1119
01:00:19,908 --> 01:00:21,160
of disinformation.

1120
01:00:23,120 --> 01:00:24,955
It's terribly difficult because

1121
01:00:25,039 --> 01:00:26,623
they don't know who I am,

1122
01:00:26,707 --> 01:00:30,627
nor when I started this mission,
nor how long I've been here.

1123
01:00:31,587 --> 01:00:33,922
And the only thing they take as given

1124
01:00:34,006 --> 01:00:35,132
is that headline.

1125
01:00:36,633 --> 01:00:40,554
"Juanpa says that the Love Army project
too big for him to handle."

1126
01:00:41,805 --> 01:00:46,727
"Juanpa couldn't do it." Right? "He didn't
complete it." "Juanpa didn't finish."

1127
01:00:46,810 --> 01:00:49,646
... don't forget
he did this with donations.

1128
01:00:49,730 --> 01:00:52,316
Did he steal another 25 million pesos?

1129
01:00:52,399 --> 01:00:55,819
On the drawing board, you say,
"I'm gonna help."

1130
01:00:55,903 --> 01:00:58,614
I raise funds, I use them.
Everyone's happy.

1131
01:00:58,697 --> 01:01:00,449
Including yourself. Right?

1132
01:01:00,532 --> 01:01:02,659
At what fucking point of that plan

1133
01:01:02,743 --> 01:01:05,454
do you think,
"The whole country will hate me"?

1134
01:01:05,954 --> 01:01:07,122
Just like that.

1135
01:01:07,206 --> 01:01:10,084
This will haunt Juanpa forever.

1136
01:01:10,167 --> 01:01:12,753
And when he's 70 years old,

1137
01:01:12,836 --> 01:01:16,256
and he posts a photo saying,
"Remember Love Army?"

1138
01:01:16,340 --> 01:01:19,301
A 70-year-old hater will come out
of the woodwork

1139
01:01:19,385 --> 01:01:22,805
and say, "But you stole the money."
These people never stop.

1140
01:01:22,888 --> 01:01:24,473
People won't let things go.

1141
01:01:24,556 --> 01:01:26,350
And they won't research either.

1142
01:01:26,433 --> 01:01:29,561
Because today's trend is
to read the headline and rage.

1143
01:01:29,645 --> 01:01:31,230
-How are you?
-Fine.

1144
01:01:31,313 --> 01:01:32,648
-Everything okay?
-Yes.

1145
01:01:32,731 --> 01:01:34,066
-Everything cool?
-Yes.

1146
01:01:34,149 --> 01:01:35,275
-100%?
-Yes.

1147
01:01:35,359 --> 01:01:36,735
-Beauty all round?
-Yes.

1148
01:01:36,819 --> 01:01:37,903
-Smoking hot?
-Yes.

1149
01:01:37,986 --> 01:01:39,238
That's it!

1150
01:01:40,239 --> 01:01:41,448
Which one's your room?

1151
01:01:41,532 --> 01:01:45,160
Look, it's all the way there,
where the builder is.

1152
01:01:45,244 --> 01:01:48,872
I love watching Spider-Man movies.

1153
01:01:48,956 --> 01:01:52,292
Go on, jump like Tarzan.

1154
01:01:52,376 --> 01:01:53,669
Hang on!

1155
01:01:54,294 --> 01:01:56,046
JUANPA, PAMBO - LOVE ARMY
MIKEL MUÑÓZ - SUPERVISOR

1156
01:01:56,130 --> 01:01:59,299
Introduce the access code,
followed by the pound key.

1157
01:02:02,052 --> 01:02:05,347
The indirect costs are messed up.

1158
01:02:05,431 --> 01:02:07,099
And listen up.

1159
01:02:07,182 --> 01:02:09,685
Now they're telling us the indirect costs

1160
01:02:09,768 --> 01:02:12,020
don't amount to 25% but 33%.

1161
01:02:12,104 --> 01:02:13,063
What?

1162
01:02:13,147 --> 01:02:16,483
That's outrageous,
they're contradicting themselves.

1163
01:02:16,567 --> 01:02:19,570
To make the long story short,
he spent it all.

1164
01:02:19,653 --> 01:02:23,365
Now, what he's proposing,
if we want to finish the houses,

1165
01:02:23,449 --> 01:02:25,117
is to use a cheaper block.

1166
01:02:26,118 --> 01:02:28,203
So, the only way out...

1167
01:02:28,287 --> 01:02:33,375
Well, I told him he had accept
covering this extra cost.

1168
01:02:36,253 --> 01:02:39,047
Things get very complicated
because we can't progress.

1169
01:02:39,131 --> 01:02:42,468
You have paid nearly
seven times more in indirect costs.

1170
01:02:42,551 --> 01:02:46,346
Indirect costs are closely linked
with the completion time.

1171
01:02:46,430 --> 01:02:47,681
That's the problem.

1172
01:02:47,764 --> 01:02:50,976
Every month you're paying for staff,

1173
01:02:51,059 --> 01:02:53,270
equipment, a truck...

1174
01:02:53,353 --> 01:02:55,856
As a client who hired this service,

1175
01:02:55,939 --> 01:02:58,567
the least I would expect is to be told,

1176
01:02:58,650 --> 01:03:04,198
"You know what?
This month we'll build just one house.

1177
01:03:04,281 --> 01:03:06,825
"So I'll reduce my staff
to build one house

1178
01:03:06,909 --> 01:03:09,453
"because that is
the cost of building one."

1179
01:03:09,536 --> 01:03:12,831
I don't want to hear,
"I've got the staff to build all 50,

1180
01:03:12,915 --> 01:03:16,585
"and I'll charge you for the lot
during all of these months."

1181
01:03:17,127 --> 01:03:21,507
So, Mikel, why do you think that he,
as a professional in this industry,

1182
01:03:22,341 --> 01:03:24,218
did not follow procedure?

1183
01:03:24,301 --> 01:03:27,012
-Because there's no contract.
-Right.

1184
01:03:28,222 --> 01:03:29,389
That's the problem.

1185
01:03:29,473 --> 01:03:32,309
He doesn't have
a contractual relationship with you.

1186
01:03:32,392 --> 01:03:35,437
I understand
there are variations in some areas,

1187
01:03:35,521 --> 01:03:39,942
but this is... without meaning disrespect,
he's scammed us. You know?

1188
01:03:41,235 --> 01:03:45,155
When you lack leverage,

1189
01:03:45,239 --> 01:03:46,406
then...

1190
01:03:46,490 --> 01:03:49,326
You can't restrict Échale's

1191
01:03:49,409 --> 01:03:51,036
payment.

1192
01:03:51,870 --> 01:03:54,831
And you start losing control.

1193
01:03:55,415 --> 01:03:57,834
We had no means
to put pressure on Échale.

1194
01:03:57,918 --> 01:04:01,588
And that led us

1195
01:04:02,631 --> 01:04:04,132
to a very complex situation.

1196
01:04:05,300 --> 01:04:09,471
The Love Army personnel
in the field amounts to 89 people

1197
01:04:09,555 --> 01:04:11,431
and at the building site, 15.

1198
01:04:11,515 --> 01:04:13,141
But pay attention to the trucks.

1199
01:04:13,225 --> 01:04:17,479
Because there are 572 paid trips
but only 120 for your building site.

1200
01:04:17,563 --> 01:04:18,814
And we can go on.

1201
01:04:18,897 --> 01:04:21,191
So this is a measured project.

1202
01:04:21,275 --> 01:04:24,027
The client pays any amount they spend.

1203
01:04:24,111 --> 01:04:26,613
This supervision is the Inquisition.

1204
01:04:26,697 --> 01:04:29,449
"I'm coming here to pounce on you."

1205
01:04:29,533 --> 01:04:31,618
And all supervisions are like that.

1206
01:04:31,702 --> 01:04:34,162
Why? Because they have to do their job.

1207
01:04:34,246 --> 01:04:36,415
No supervisor comes in and says,

1208
01:04:36,498 --> 01:04:37,499
"It's an audit."

1209
01:04:37,583 --> 01:04:39,710
No audit will ever conclude,

1210
01:04:39,793 --> 01:04:41,211
"Everything's perfect."

1211
01:04:41,295 --> 01:04:44,965
They wouldn't believe the auditor.
"What is this about? This is weird."

1212
01:04:45,048 --> 01:04:46,675
The rebuilding issue

1213
01:04:47,259 --> 01:04:48,677
has a level of complexity

1214
01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:53,140
that none of us, who've been involved,
got to see from the start.

1215
01:04:53,223 --> 01:04:56,810
Your initial vision,
when you start on something,

1216
01:04:56,893 --> 01:04:59,146
and the final result,

1217
01:04:59,229 --> 01:05:00,772
will be entirely different.

1218
01:05:00,856 --> 01:05:04,818
If you don't attain
a good level of coordination

1219
01:05:04,901 --> 01:05:07,070
between production and construction...

1220
01:05:07,154 --> 01:05:09,072
In short, avoid idle periods.

1221
01:05:09,156 --> 01:05:13,368
That costs money, and that's exactly what
there was not enough of.

1222
01:05:13,452 --> 01:05:14,494
Money.

1223
01:05:14,578 --> 01:05:17,456
This became a 24/7 job

1224
01:05:17,539 --> 01:05:19,625
for the entire Échale team.

1225
01:05:19,708 --> 01:05:21,627
There were days when...

1226
01:05:21,710 --> 01:05:24,087
When we were crying, like,

1227
01:05:24,171 --> 01:05:26,840
"Please, make it stop."

1228
01:05:26,923 --> 01:05:30,594
Especially in the middle stage,
when you say,

1229
01:05:30,677 --> 01:05:34,598
"The houses aren't finished.
Why are we working so slowly?"

1230
01:05:34,681 --> 01:05:37,434
"Why haven't we started
on this house yet?"

1231
01:05:37,768 --> 01:05:39,936
What is taking a toll on us

1232
01:05:40,020 --> 01:05:43,273
is that a project
we should have completed in 12 months

1233
01:05:43,357 --> 01:05:45,901
remains unfinished
30 months down the line.

1234
01:05:45,984 --> 01:05:48,820
Who is in charge
of carrying out that project?

1235
01:05:49,571 --> 01:05:50,822
We are, Pambo,

1236
01:05:50,906 --> 01:05:54,284
but we didn't have the basic tools

1237
01:05:54,368 --> 01:05:55,577
at the time

1238
01:05:55,661 --> 01:05:57,996
to work on 20 houses at the same time.

1239
01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:01,708
So, Love Army asks us
for a made-to-measure suit, yes?

1240
01:06:01,792 --> 01:06:03,835
Our presence is needed 24/7, yes?

1241
01:06:03,919 --> 01:06:05,712
They like the suit.

1242
01:06:05,796 --> 01:06:08,465
This suit is unique, there's none like it

1243
01:06:08,548 --> 01:06:09,758
in the whole world.

1244
01:06:09,841 --> 01:06:11,426
Please, I beg you.

1245
01:06:11,510 --> 01:06:14,971
Don't say any other
construction company could have done this.

1246
01:06:15,055 --> 01:06:17,182
Because it's not true.
So, please,

1247
01:06:17,265 --> 01:06:19,017
where is all of this heading?

1248
01:06:19,101 --> 01:06:21,061
-I... Francesco.
-No, Francesco...

1249
01:06:21,144 --> 01:06:23,855
-No, wait, I'm not asking that.
-I want...

1250
01:06:23,939 --> 01:06:27,025
You should have told me that
from the start,

1251
01:06:27,109 --> 01:06:29,111
not after things took a bad turn.

1252
01:06:30,195 --> 01:06:31,822
At the end of the day,

1253
01:06:31,905 --> 01:06:36,118
the strongest point of this project
was also its greatest weakness.

1254
01:06:36,785 --> 01:06:39,746
Weakness, in terms of its high complexity.

1255
01:06:39,830 --> 01:06:41,915
We had 50 projects here.

1256
01:06:41,998 --> 01:06:43,208
All of them different.

1257
01:06:43,291 --> 01:06:47,003
And it's great but, to put it bluntly,
it's also a clusterfuck.

1258
01:06:47,087 --> 01:06:48,213
It's a huge problem.

1259
01:06:48,296 --> 01:06:50,132
I propose

1260
01:06:50,215 --> 01:06:52,801
to carry out a supervision

1261
01:06:52,884 --> 01:06:56,221
on how the construction
was developed, like I said.

1262
01:06:56,304 --> 01:06:59,224
Every single logbook,
every single change,

1263
01:06:59,307 --> 01:07:03,019
every single invoice,
and we might all be surprised

1264
01:07:03,103 --> 01:07:06,398
at the fact that we put in more money
than was budgeted.

1265
01:07:06,481 --> 01:07:09,151
Why? To comply
with project specifications.

1266
01:07:09,234 --> 01:07:11,361
I don't want to argue any further.

1267
01:07:11,445 --> 01:07:14,364
We've reached an agreement,
let's give it our all.

1268
01:07:15,282 --> 01:07:17,284
JULY 2020 THREE YEARS AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE
28 HOUSES BUILT

1269
01:07:17,367 --> 01:07:20,287
First of July, 2020.
We have 19 houses yet to build.

1270
01:07:20,370 --> 01:07:24,082
Ten are already approved
and we agreed to change materials

1271
01:07:24,166 --> 01:07:25,417
to make them cheaper.

1272
01:07:26,126 --> 01:07:29,087
We also agreed
we wouldn't touch the outer appearance,

1273
01:07:29,171 --> 01:07:31,256
but nine houses had changed.

1274
01:07:31,339 --> 01:07:35,594
JUANPA, PAMBO - MIKEL MUÑÓZ, SUPERVISOR
FRANCESCO PIAZZESI, CEO ÉCHALE A TU CASA

1275
01:07:35,677 --> 01:07:36,511
Francesco?

1276
01:07:38,096 --> 01:07:39,514
Hi, how are you, Juanpa?

1277
01:07:39,598 --> 01:07:42,559
The changes are all but what we agreed.

1278
01:07:42,642 --> 01:07:44,561
I mean, the houses are...

1279
01:07:44,644 --> 01:07:47,063
Entirely different.
What's the confusion?

1280
01:07:47,147 --> 01:07:49,399
Like, it's so weird
we agree on something,

1281
01:07:49,483 --> 01:07:52,068
something else comes up,
and we waste more time.

1282
01:07:52,152 --> 01:07:57,157
We didn't adjust...
We didn't modify the projects.

1283
01:07:57,240 --> 01:08:00,952
We simply made
the necessary immediate adjustments.

1284
01:08:01,036 --> 01:08:06,833
You've removed one floor in some houses,
so you've changed the project.

1285
01:08:07,334 --> 01:08:12,214
We redesign the blueprints again.
We stop construction again...

1286
01:08:12,297 --> 01:08:14,925
And we start over again.

1287
01:08:15,008 --> 01:08:18,220
So this was an issue we had

1288
01:08:18,303 --> 01:08:21,723
to polish over and over again

1289
01:08:21,807 --> 01:08:25,477
until all of us were on the same page.

1290
01:08:25,560 --> 01:08:28,313
It's not that we were always right.

1291
01:08:28,396 --> 01:08:29,898
Not at all.

1292
01:08:29,981 --> 01:08:32,400
Part of the project
was completed like that

1293
01:08:32,484 --> 01:08:35,153
but it's actually urgent
to finish the homes.

1294
01:08:35,237 --> 01:08:38,490
Let's forget about certain products

1295
01:08:38,573 --> 01:08:41,409
and let's move on to industrializing

1296
01:08:41,493 --> 01:08:43,829
and building more efficiently,

1297
01:08:43,912 --> 01:08:46,206
from the financial point of view.

1298
01:08:46,289 --> 01:08:48,708
Francesco has spent the money and says

1299
01:08:48,792 --> 01:08:51,962
that in order to finish,
he'll use normal blocks,

1300
01:08:52,045 --> 01:08:54,464
that Ecoblocks cost more,
and that's bullshit.

1301
01:08:54,548 --> 01:08:56,341
It's his fault, not ours.

1302
01:08:56,800 --> 01:08:59,719
If you're in Ocuilan
and see the Love Army houses,

1303
01:08:59,803 --> 01:09:00,637
they glow.

1304
01:09:01,263 --> 01:09:02,848
Their Ecoblocks stand out.

1305
01:09:04,224 --> 01:09:07,060
And I didn't want
any differences between them.

1306
01:09:07,143 --> 01:09:09,980
Well, not me, nor Pambo,
nor anyone wanted

1307
01:09:10,063 --> 01:09:11,940
to see any differences

1308
01:09:12,023 --> 01:09:13,066
between houses.

1309
01:09:13,149 --> 01:09:17,028
And we still needed
a specific amount of money.

1310
01:09:21,992 --> 01:09:25,161
There's an issue I wanted to discuss.

1311
01:09:25,245 --> 01:09:28,039
If you want to use Ecoblocks,
you must act today.

1312
01:09:28,123 --> 01:09:29,374
-Today?
-Indeed.

1313
01:09:29,457 --> 01:09:31,585
-Okay.
-Before we sign everything.

1314
01:09:31,668 --> 01:09:33,587
So, prepare a lovely speech

1315
01:09:33,670 --> 01:09:35,505
and call Francesco to see...

1316
01:09:35,589 --> 01:09:36,882
I'll call him now, then.

1317
01:09:36,965 --> 01:09:39,050
-Without us, no?
-Just me and him.

1318
01:09:39,134 --> 01:09:44,180
JUANPA, LOVE ARMY MEXICO
FRANCESCO PIAZZESI, CEO ÉCHALE A TU CASA

1319
01:09:45,724 --> 01:09:48,685
-Hello?
-Hi, Francesco, how are you?

1320
01:09:49,436 --> 01:09:50,854
Hi, Juanpa, how are you?

1321
01:09:50,937 --> 01:09:54,316
After our call, I finally understood

1322
01:09:54,399 --> 01:09:58,236
that these last houses
won't have your blocks.

1323
01:09:58,320 --> 01:10:00,238
If I were in your place,

1324
01:10:01,239 --> 01:10:03,825
I would do anything,

1325
01:10:03,909 --> 01:10:05,493
on behalf of Échale,

1326
01:10:05,577 --> 01:10:08,371
to use your blocks.

1327
01:10:08,455 --> 01:10:11,291
Let me see what we can do

1328
01:10:11,958 --> 01:10:14,377
so that our blocks are there.

1329
01:10:14,461 --> 01:10:16,338
What I propose to you,

1330
01:10:16,421 --> 01:10:18,298
from gentleman to gentleman,

1331
01:10:18,381 --> 01:10:19,549
is that...

1332
01:10:20,342 --> 01:10:22,761
If there's any increase in our budget,

1333
01:10:22,844 --> 01:10:24,679
I can promise you

1334
01:10:24,763 --> 01:10:27,307
to pay half with my own money

1335
01:10:27,390 --> 01:10:29,059
and you guys pay half, too.

1336
01:10:29,142 --> 01:10:30,685
That's what I can offer.

1337
01:10:31,144 --> 01:10:33,480
Let me see, let me talk

1338
01:10:33,563 --> 01:10:36,691
to the team, to production and everything.

1339
01:10:36,775 --> 01:10:39,903
And let's find a way to achieve this.

1340
01:10:40,528 --> 01:10:43,657
JUANPA, LOVE ARMY MEXICO
FRANCESCO PIAZZESI, CEO ÉCHALE A TU CASA

1341
01:10:43,740 --> 01:10:46,117
-Hello?
-Hi, Francesco, how are you?

1342
01:10:46,201 --> 01:10:47,911
Hi, Juanpa, how are you?

1343
01:10:47,994 --> 01:10:48,954
Talk to me.

1344
01:10:49,037 --> 01:10:51,790
Hey, we've been looking into this.

1345
01:10:51,873 --> 01:10:53,875
We have a few points to discuss.

1346
01:10:53,959 --> 01:10:55,710
-Okay.
-One. We need...

1347
01:10:55,794 --> 01:10:57,963
We need one more month to do this.

1348
01:10:58,046 --> 01:11:00,340
And we do need the money upfront.

1349
01:11:00,423 --> 01:11:03,635
This is a foundation
and the foundation doesn't have money.

1350
01:11:03,718 --> 01:11:06,888
Yes, that money would come
from you, as Francesco.

1351
01:11:06,972 --> 01:11:08,348
And from me, as Juanpa.

1352
01:11:08,431 --> 01:11:10,225
Not from Love Army or Échale.

1353
01:11:10,308 --> 01:11:11,935
Okay, then. You know what?

1354
01:11:12,018 --> 01:11:13,979
Give me, literally, 20 minutes,

1355
01:11:14,062 --> 01:11:18,024
and I'll make the necessary calls
to make this decision right now,

1356
01:11:18,108 --> 01:11:19,818
and not waste any more time, okay?

1357
01:11:19,901 --> 01:11:21,319
Sure. I'm right here.

1358
01:11:21,403 --> 01:11:23,238
Great, I'll call you back.
Bye.

1359
01:11:23,321 --> 01:11:25,407
-Hello?
-I've just spoken to Francesco.

1360
01:11:25,490 --> 01:11:28,243
This is the closure we needed.

1361
01:11:28,326 --> 01:11:30,120
-And...
-We'll do this, Juanpa!

1362
01:11:30,203 --> 01:11:31,913
And we'll do this!

1363
01:11:34,499 --> 01:11:37,460
Okay, I'll call this gentleman,
who is now my ally.

1364
01:11:37,961 --> 01:11:41,089
Life does take really wild turns.
Okay, later!

1365
01:11:43,383 --> 01:11:44,384
Great!

1366
01:11:46,761 --> 01:11:48,388
Francesco. Close the deal.

1367
01:11:48,471 --> 01:11:50,598
-What's up, Juanpa?
-What's up?

1368
01:11:50,682 --> 01:11:54,352
So, look. I've spoken to the whole team

1369
01:11:54,436 --> 01:11:57,814
and we decided we would build the houses

1370
01:11:58,231 --> 01:12:00,191
entirely out of Ecoblocks.

1371
01:12:00,275 --> 01:12:02,193
That would complete the project.

1372
01:12:02,277 --> 01:12:03,903
It's important that these houses

1373
01:12:03,987 --> 01:12:06,531
resemble the others
as much as possible

1374
01:12:06,614 --> 01:12:08,033
to finish it all off.

1375
01:12:08,116 --> 01:12:10,160
We perfectly understand why

1376
01:12:10,577 --> 01:12:12,328
you need one more month.

1377
01:12:12,412 --> 01:12:13,913
Well, just so you know.

1378
01:12:13,997 --> 01:12:16,041
Green light, let's go full blast.

1379
01:12:16,124 --> 01:12:17,751
And let's give it our all.

1380
01:12:17,834 --> 01:12:19,044
-Our all!
-Yes.

1381
01:12:19,461 --> 01:12:21,963
Perfect, of course.
It will be a pleasure.

1382
01:12:22,047 --> 01:12:23,882
-Okay, bye.
-Deal.

1383
01:12:23,965 --> 01:12:25,425
-See ya.
-Bye.

1384
01:12:25,508 --> 01:12:28,511
You don't know how long
I've been waiting for this.

1385
01:12:29,929 --> 01:12:33,224
It feels good to be in control
and to know exactly

1386
01:12:33,308 --> 01:12:36,603
everything that's going on
in all areas, architecture,

1387
01:12:36,686 --> 01:12:38,897
building company, supervision...

1388
01:12:39,397 --> 01:12:41,149
Everything.
Now, this is it.

1389
01:12:41,232 --> 01:12:42,317
Let's build this.

1390
01:12:42,859 --> 01:12:43,943
Let's finish!

1391
01:12:44,527 --> 01:12:48,156
APRIL 2021
37 HOUSES BUILT

1392
01:12:48,239 --> 01:12:51,409
After the heavy criticism
endured by Love Army Mexico,

1393
01:12:51,493 --> 01:12:53,495
we went to Ocuilan to see, remember?

1394
01:12:53,578 --> 01:12:56,498
That's why I called TVyNovelas magazine

1395
01:12:56,581 --> 01:13:00,376
so that we obtained
photographic evidence

1396
01:13:00,460 --> 01:13:05,298
of Juanpa Zurita's
dishonesty and theft.

1397
01:13:05,965 --> 01:13:08,551
Well, let's secure this story, right?

1398
01:13:08,635 --> 01:13:10,970
I've been a journalist for 34 years

1399
01:13:11,054 --> 01:13:13,264
and whenever I've made a mistake,

1400
01:13:13,348 --> 01:13:16,518
I show up, face the music
and say, "You know what?

1401
01:13:17,143 --> 01:13:19,062
"I screwed up, I fucked up."

1402
01:13:19,145 --> 01:13:22,273
And he was kind enough to...

1403
01:13:23,900 --> 01:13:27,278
Prove to me, with supporting evidence,
that I was mistaken.

1404
01:13:27,362 --> 01:13:30,406
I hit him hard several times,
and he never complained.

1405
01:13:30,490 --> 01:13:34,452
He is not very familiar
with traditional media.

1406
01:13:34,536 --> 01:13:36,788
Social media is his natural habitat.

1407
01:13:36,871 --> 01:13:41,584
And he had the emotional intelligence
to avoid confrontation

1408
01:13:42,377 --> 01:13:46,506
with an old wolf with a crooked fang
who has seen it all in the business.

1409
01:13:46,589 --> 01:13:48,800
A veteran, such as myself.

1410
01:13:48,883 --> 01:13:50,844
I don't know what people imagined.

1411
01:13:50,927 --> 01:13:54,722
How come these damaging
news stories just popped up overnight?

1412
01:13:54,806 --> 01:13:58,059
These stories,
claiming nothing was being built.

1413
01:13:58,143 --> 01:14:01,312
Well, so one day, we met up very early.

1414
01:14:01,396 --> 01:14:04,607
I found out that Juanpa,
obviously joined forces

1415
01:14:04,691 --> 01:14:07,360
with other organizations

1416
01:14:07,443 --> 01:14:11,781
that contributed,
depending on their specializations.

1417
01:14:11,865 --> 01:14:12,824
Hiya.

1418
01:14:14,701 --> 01:14:18,788
I'll say it once more, what
a great project here in Ocuilan, Juanpa.

1419
01:14:18,872 --> 01:14:21,040
Look, at one point, I did lose the...

1420
01:14:21,124 --> 01:14:22,917
-The faith?
-Yes, yes. I said,

1421
01:14:23,001 --> 01:14:24,836
-"No, no way."
-I understand.

1422
01:14:24,919 --> 01:14:27,172
But when I saw it, my Mom said,

1423
01:14:27,255 --> 01:14:30,508
"They're coming to start building..."

1424
01:14:30,592 --> 01:14:32,594
I said, "No, I can't believe it!"

1425
01:14:32,677 --> 01:14:34,929
-I was so excited.
-That's it.

1426
01:14:35,013 --> 01:14:38,183
Thanks to you, guys,
this is a dream come true.

1427
01:14:38,266 --> 01:14:41,269
Well, here's proof

1428
01:14:41,352 --> 01:14:43,479
that the house was actually built.

1429
01:14:43,563 --> 01:14:46,149
It's got everything,
water, electricity, everything.

1430
01:14:46,232 --> 01:14:49,235
A good action pushes you forward.

1431
01:14:49,319 --> 01:14:50,320
Always.

1432
01:14:50,403 --> 01:14:53,907
We must emulate good deeds.

1433
01:14:53,990 --> 01:14:56,826
And what this project achieved

1434
01:14:56,910 --> 01:14:58,411
was something fantastic.

1435
01:14:58,494 --> 01:15:01,581
Look, you can come and eat delicious food.

1436
01:15:01,664 --> 01:15:03,499
Give me your blessing with it.

1437
01:15:05,585 --> 01:15:07,837
NOVEMBER 2021
47 HOUSES BUILT

1438
01:15:07,921 --> 01:15:10,298
-One, two, three!
-One, two, three!

1439
01:15:11,716 --> 01:15:13,343
Hell, yeah!

1440
01:15:13,426 --> 01:15:15,428
When we left, I told Juanpa

1441
01:15:15,511 --> 01:15:19,224
that I was relieved to see
the way people looked at him.

1442
01:15:19,307 --> 01:15:21,100
I said, "Congratulations, dude."

1443
01:15:21,184 --> 01:15:22,894
Because those who matter,

1444
01:15:22,977 --> 01:15:26,064
those who'd be upset
if you'd broken your promise,

1445
01:15:26,147 --> 01:15:27,148
they love you, dude.

1446
01:15:28,233 --> 01:15:29,651
There's more.

1447
01:15:29,734 --> 01:15:32,237
Here, thanks for trusting us.

1448
01:15:32,320 --> 01:15:35,615
It's so beautiful, so beautiful.

1449
01:15:35,698 --> 01:15:36,824
Bravo!

1450
01:15:36,908 --> 01:15:41,037
Thank you, honestly. This is great.
Now, even the bathroom has running water.

1451
01:15:41,120 --> 01:15:45,083
I'm so happy to know
that Juanpa achieved the goal.

1452
01:15:45,166 --> 01:15:46,918
This boy has outdone himself.

1453
01:15:47,585 --> 01:15:49,379
Helping everyone around here.

1454
01:15:49,462 --> 01:15:51,798
-See?
-I can't believe it!

1455
01:15:52,590 --> 01:15:54,592
Hey, are we men or are we clowns?

1456
01:15:55,677 --> 01:15:56,719
I'm a clown.

1457
01:15:57,262 --> 01:15:59,806
They're human. They breathe.

1458
01:16:00,932 --> 01:16:02,016
-Ready!
-That's it!

1459
01:16:02,100 --> 01:16:02,976
Bravo!

1460
01:16:06,104 --> 01:16:07,772
They gave us their trust.

1461
01:16:08,815 --> 01:16:11,234
This makes me feel so proud, and...

1462
01:16:11,317 --> 01:16:13,152
I loved to prove everyone wrong.

1463
01:16:13,236 --> 01:16:15,738
-Thanks a lot.
-No, thank you.

1464
01:16:16,406 --> 01:16:19,075
Because without you,
I'd still be homeless.

1465
01:16:19,158 --> 01:16:21,619
That's it!

1466
01:16:22,287 --> 01:16:25,456
I mean, to be inspired
by my little brother...

1467
01:16:25,540 --> 01:16:28,710
I look back and say,
"How did you put up with that?"

1468
01:16:28,793 --> 01:16:32,255
Learning from someone
who has lived fewer years than me...

1469
01:16:32,338 --> 01:16:35,508
That's a really lovely thing.

1470
01:16:35,591 --> 01:16:38,928
One, two, three!

1471
01:16:39,387 --> 01:16:40,972
We did it!

1472
01:16:43,308 --> 01:16:47,186
I always say that we'll always
be grateful to those angels

1473
01:16:47,270 --> 01:16:50,023
that God sent us in due time

1474
01:16:50,106 --> 01:16:53,359
to help us, shelter us, cuddle us,

1475
01:16:53,901 --> 01:16:56,988
and give us a little bit of what they do.

1476
01:16:57,071 --> 01:16:58,906
May God bless them.

1477
01:16:58,990 --> 01:17:01,451
The first thing I noticed
in the living room

1478
01:17:01,534 --> 01:17:04,746
was the photo of Juan Pablo
and the team... No, I was like,

1479
01:17:04,829 --> 01:17:06,164
"I can't believe it."

1480
01:17:06,247 --> 01:17:08,374
Look, Juan Manuel made this.

1481
01:17:08,458 --> 01:17:09,417
THANKS LOVE ARMY MEXICO

1482
01:17:09,500 --> 01:17:11,919
-It's cute.
-Juan Manuel made this one.

1483
01:17:12,003 --> 01:17:13,838
A lovely friendship was born.

1484
01:17:14,297 --> 01:17:17,008
And these things helped me
become stronger.

1485
01:17:18,051 --> 01:17:20,887
This house is not only mine,
it's everyone's.

1486
01:17:21,387 --> 01:17:22,680
Everyone who lives here.

1487
01:17:22,764 --> 01:17:25,266
I grew up here
and will stay here forever.

1488
01:17:25,350 --> 01:17:28,102
I'd like to have
a son and a daughter.

1489
01:17:28,186 --> 01:17:30,480
Anahí, Anahí!

1490
01:17:31,230 --> 01:17:32,774
What about you? Your turn.

1491
01:17:32,857 --> 01:17:33,900
Three!

1492
01:17:34,650 --> 01:17:36,778
-I don't know what to say.
-Bravo!

1493
01:17:37,236 --> 01:17:38,863
-Three!
-Yes!

1494
01:17:39,781 --> 01:17:41,783
Let's focus on what we can do.

1495
01:17:41,866 --> 01:17:44,911
And never forget what we haven't done yet.

1496
01:17:44,994 --> 01:17:48,331
And let's create a culture
of help and support in Mexico,

1497
01:17:48,456 --> 01:17:49,832
without suspicion.

1498
01:17:49,916 --> 01:17:50,750
That's it!

1499
01:17:51,542 --> 01:17:52,543
Thank you.

1500
01:17:52,627 --> 01:17:56,714
I wish this beautiful side
wouldn't only come out after tragedies.

1501
01:17:56,798 --> 01:17:58,883
I wish it was more normalized.

1502
01:17:58,966 --> 01:18:01,552
In all architecture schools,

1503
01:18:01,636 --> 01:18:03,638
you hear about social architecture.

1504
01:18:03,971 --> 01:18:07,266
Well, we applied it here.
We finished all of the houses.

1505
01:18:07,350 --> 01:18:11,396
All participants received their reward.

1506
01:18:11,938 --> 01:18:14,357
They all acquired skills.

1507
01:18:14,440 --> 01:18:17,944
If there's anything we have
a satisfaction for, here at Échale,

1508
01:18:18,027 --> 01:18:23,324
is that we can go back
to all of the houses we've built

1509
01:18:23,408 --> 01:18:26,160
and we are lovingly welcomed,

1510
01:18:26,244 --> 01:18:30,415
with this great warmth
typical of our Mexican families.

1511
01:18:30,498 --> 01:18:33,584
And if you're visiting over five homes,

1512
01:18:33,668 --> 01:18:36,963
fast for a couple of days
because you'll be offered

1513
01:18:37,046 --> 01:18:38,965
all sorts of food.

1514
01:18:39,048 --> 01:18:40,842
A kind bunch emerged,

1515
01:18:40,925 --> 01:18:44,429
open to meet with other people,

1516
01:18:44,512 --> 01:18:45,847
to converse with them,

1517
01:18:45,930 --> 01:18:47,640
to learn from others,

1518
01:18:47,723 --> 01:18:50,268
to grow, as they say,
that sort of thing.

1519
01:18:50,351 --> 01:18:52,728
They taught us to work as a team.

1520
01:18:52,812 --> 01:18:54,647
As for the group we're part of,

1521
01:18:54,730 --> 01:18:57,442
I'm deeply grateful to them.

1522
01:18:57,525 --> 01:19:01,362
The people of Ocuilan
decided to commercialize

1523
01:19:01,446 --> 01:19:04,240
all of their skills and talents.

1524
01:19:04,699 --> 01:19:07,660
They have their own brand,
which they market.

1525
01:19:07,743 --> 01:19:11,372
They have different products, like...
They even make mezcal.

1526
01:19:11,456 --> 01:19:14,584
And something I really liked,
and which I noticed,

1527
01:19:14,667 --> 01:19:18,129
is how these women got involved.

1528
01:19:18,212 --> 01:19:19,630
With new projects,

1529
01:19:19,714 --> 01:19:21,841
we have many goals to achieve.

1530
01:19:21,924 --> 01:19:24,552
Remember when we didn't
believe in ourselves?

1531
01:19:24,635 --> 01:19:26,846
And now, well...

1532
01:19:26,929 --> 01:19:29,849
They got us started,
and now they may go.

1533
01:19:29,932 --> 01:19:33,436
-Yeah, Francesco!
-They're Christmas presents.

1534
01:19:33,519 --> 01:19:35,146
Well done!

1535
01:19:35,229 --> 01:19:37,064
Come on!

1536
01:19:37,815 --> 01:19:39,817
Does anyone have an extra plate?

1537
01:19:39,901 --> 01:19:42,695
There are some here.
Do you want one?

1538
01:19:42,778 --> 01:19:44,071
It's too small.

1539
01:19:44,155 --> 01:19:45,823
Here's one, who wants one?

1540
01:19:45,907 --> 01:19:47,116
Cheers, team. Really.

1541
01:19:47,200 --> 01:19:49,368
-On an empty stomach?
-What a journey!

1542
01:19:49,452 --> 01:19:50,745
-Cheers!
-Cheers!

1543
01:19:50,828 --> 01:19:52,330
They're already tipsy.

1544
01:19:52,413 --> 01:19:54,123
Cheers!

1545
01:19:54,207 --> 01:19:59,754
We spent three years and two months
regularly traveling to Ocuilan.

1546
01:20:00,338 --> 01:20:02,673
And there's this bittersweet feeling.

1547
01:20:03,341 --> 01:20:06,511
It's beautiful to have finished
and it's beautiful that...

1548
01:20:07,970 --> 01:20:09,597
that it's over, but...

1549
01:20:09,680 --> 01:20:12,850
It does make me truly feel...

1550
01:20:17,939 --> 01:20:18,940
Proud...

1551
01:20:21,234 --> 01:20:22,235
to see...

1552
01:20:23,611 --> 01:20:24,987
what we achieved.

1553
01:20:25,071 --> 01:20:26,155
Back then,

1554
01:20:26,239 --> 01:20:29,283
Juanpa was like waves
crashing against rocks all the time.

1555
01:20:29,367 --> 01:20:31,994
And there's something
very chaotic about that,

1556
01:20:32,078 --> 01:20:34,914
but that energy of his is also impressive.

1557
01:20:35,498 --> 01:20:39,919
And if that energy is well-directed,
it's capable of achieving powerful things,

1558
01:20:40,002 --> 01:20:42,213
and it can produce important changes.

1559
01:20:43,214 --> 01:20:44,924
I think that's the beauty of it.

1560
01:20:45,007 --> 01:20:47,843
Not expecting anything in return
for what we did.

1561
01:20:47,927 --> 01:20:50,179
The exchange already happened.

1562
01:20:50,263 --> 01:20:52,181
We gained maturity,

1563
01:20:52,265 --> 01:20:54,892
and knowing we helped these families.

1564
01:20:54,976 --> 01:20:57,353
That's it,
that's what we received in return.

1565
01:20:57,937 --> 01:21:00,106
Sometimes I don't know when to stop.

1566
01:21:00,731 --> 01:21:05,528
I want to keep bringing them stuff,
doing projects in Ocuilan.

1567
01:21:05,611 --> 01:21:08,823
And sometimes I don't know
when to let that go,

1568
01:21:08,906 --> 01:21:11,200
when to stop visiting them.

1569
01:21:11,284 --> 01:21:14,161
You form a very special family

1570
01:21:14,245 --> 01:21:15,913
in a project like this.

1571
01:21:19,417 --> 01:21:23,087
It fills me with pride,
but also with sadness and nostalgia.

1572
01:21:23,671 --> 01:21:27,049
It's one of the most beautiful things
I've experienced.

1573
01:21:31,429 --> 01:21:33,472
-Good morning.
-Good morning.

1574
01:21:33,556 --> 01:21:37,852
I still remember looking
at your pictures with the little...

1575
01:21:37,935 --> 01:21:41,397
with the little solar panels,
and I was like, "This guy is nuts."

1576
01:21:41,480 --> 01:21:44,066
"This guy is absolutely nuts,
I want to join him."

1577
01:21:44,609 --> 01:21:47,862
Trust is a word
that suits you very well because...

1578
01:21:47,945 --> 01:21:52,199
because you value so much trust
in your friendships and...

1579
01:21:53,159 --> 01:21:56,370
It is hilarious considering
the context of this movie.

1580
01:21:56,454 --> 01:22:00,041
Yes, because nobody trusts
what happened with the money.

1581
01:22:00,124 --> 01:22:03,586
If you go in a weird situation
with a friend,

1582
01:22:03,669 --> 01:22:08,883
I know you'd fly to the other side
of the world just to clear things up.

1583
01:22:08,966 --> 01:22:12,470
That's probably why now this movie
is gonna clear things up.

1584
01:22:13,054 --> 01:22:13,888
Hopefully.

1585
01:22:13,971 --> 01:22:16,223
Hopefully, hopefully, Papa.

1586
01:22:16,307 --> 01:22:20,353
Thank you for those words.
I take them, I cherish them a lot.

1587
01:22:20,895 --> 01:22:23,564
You know, you were just very...

1588
01:22:23,648 --> 01:22:25,691
Oh, my God. I can't speak, bro.

1589
01:22:26,651 --> 01:22:29,445
-Then don't speak.
-You were so important...

1590
01:22:30,237 --> 01:22:32,990
in so many ways.

1591
01:22:33,824 --> 01:22:35,493
Because...

1592
01:22:36,202 --> 01:22:39,372
You had a massive influence on, like,

1593
01:22:39,455 --> 01:22:43,459
who I am today, you know?

1594
01:22:44,168 --> 01:22:48,005
-I was very lucky to find you, you know.
-So am I.

1595
01:22:48,089 --> 01:22:51,717
And I was very lucky that we bonded.

1596
01:22:51,801 --> 01:22:57,515
You know, like, creatively,
storytelling-wise, and value-wise.

1597
01:22:57,598 --> 01:23:01,644
You... I was not expecting this right now.

1598
01:23:01,727 --> 01:23:02,895
Me neither bro.

1599
01:23:02,978 --> 01:23:04,730
This was not part of the plan.

1600
01:23:04,814 --> 01:23:08,734
On our side,
I think we always wanted to do our part.

1601
01:23:08,818 --> 01:23:11,445
-To do our little part.
-Yeah.

1602
01:23:11,529 --> 01:23:14,865
And sometimes the value is there.

1603
01:23:19,829 --> 01:23:22,748
After 4 years of work,
in Ocuilan Love Army achieved:

1604
01:23:22,832 --> 01:23:26,127
47 houses co-designed
with the beneficiary families.

1605
01:23:26,210 --> 01:23:29,046
2,800 square meters of construction work.

1606
01:23:29,130 --> 01:23:32,258
520 jobs created during the project.

1607
01:23:32,341 --> 01:23:35,052
350 people with a new home.

1608
01:23:35,636 --> 01:23:37,179
Thanks to the 6,696 donors

1609
01:23:37,263 --> 01:23:40,349
And the hundreds of thousands
who made this possible.

1610
01:23:40,433 --> 01:23:45,187
The funds of the 3 houses that couldn't
be built were used to develop Ocuilan.

1611
01:23:45,271 --> 01:23:50,776
It's still possible to help the families
by buying their local products.

1612
01:23:51,193 --> 01:23:52,278
In memory of:
Julia Rea

1613
01:23:52,361 --> 01:23:54,488
Genoveva Hernández Colin,
Alberta Lares Hernández

1614
01:23:54,572 --> 01:23:57,158
and those affected
by the earthquake at 13:14, 2017.

1615
01:23:57,241 --> 01:24:03,038
"Do what is right because it is right."
Immanuel Kant

1616
01:24:03,622 --> 01:24:06,625
Now, we'll carry out a drill.

1617
01:24:06,709 --> 01:24:08,377
An earthquake drill.

1618
01:24:08,461 --> 01:24:10,504
We must be prepared.

1619
01:24:10,588 --> 01:24:13,382
And for that, we have three rules.

1620
01:24:14,175 --> 01:24:18,095
Don't run, don't push, don't yell.

1621
01:24:19,263 --> 01:24:21,307
Let's go out. Let's move quickly.

1622
01:24:21,390 --> 01:24:23,434
Let's move quickly, faster.

1623
01:24:23,517 --> 01:24:26,562
Faster, kids, we gotta move faster.

1624
01:24:34,862 --> 01:24:35,863
Go on.

1625
01:24:37,156 --> 01:24:40,451
-Good afternoon, children.
-Good afternoon.

1626
01:24:40,534 --> 01:24:43,996
The drill we're performing
is very important,

1627
01:24:44,079 --> 01:24:45,790
here, at our school,

1628
01:24:46,290 --> 01:24:49,794
in order to be prepared
in case there's a natural disaster.

1629
01:24:49,877 --> 01:24:51,962
So we must be prepared

1630
01:24:52,046 --> 01:24:53,964
here, at our school,

1631
01:24:54,048 --> 01:24:57,176
and by following
your teachers' instructions,

1632
01:24:57,259 --> 01:24:59,303
we will practice

1633
01:24:59,386 --> 01:25:02,723
the habit of keeping calm
and not pushing.

1634
01:25:02,807 --> 01:25:04,725
Where do we keep our hands?

1635
01:25:05,267 --> 01:25:06,852
-On our heads.
-On your heads.

1636
01:25:06,936 --> 01:25:09,021
Keep your hands on your heads.

1637
01:25:09,104 --> 01:25:11,607
On the nape, just in case

1638
01:25:12,107 --> 01:25:15,236
something may fall on...

1639
01:25:16,153 --> 01:25:18,072
On us, right?

1640
01:25:18,155 --> 01:25:22,076
If anyone stays in the classroom

1641
01:25:22,743 --> 01:25:24,203
during an earthquake...
