We’d be impressed if you’ve ever met a woman gutsier than Marcela Cornejo, from Chile. 

 

In our fifth episode, Pia talks to Marcela about her activism against Chile’s dictatorship in the 1980s; how she fought for the rights of political prisoners in her country; and about the sadness and loss she still carries from having to leave her country behind.
