This film was filmed in the Dominican Republic you can even see it in the movie the artifacts and the people. This film was filmed in the, THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC in Santiago and also near where the sisters died. I absolutely love the movie its missing a lot more to the history things that Trujillo did, his plans to assassinate the president of Colombia and other countries as well. I love how they each look like the Mirabal sisters. Salma Hayek did an amazing job and this was how i first knew about her from acting in this movie. I didn't know that there was still one more Mirabal sister alive the youngest i believe and shes maintaining and taking care of the town they group up in and there gardin they played in when they were little. Giving the other kids knowledge of there History. They made a video Documentary of her and her life now after all these years. I love Dominican Republic and all of my people i think the biggest issue in DR is Haitian Immigration. Its gotten out of hand i hope it gets better in the future. I love you DR. RIP Mirabal sisters QUE VIVA LAS MARIPOSAS!
