Awka Liwen es un documental histórico educativo realizado luego de una profunda investigación, con método científico, de más de 3 años liderada por el historiador y profesor Osvaldo Bayer quién continua corriendo el velo que oculta la verdad. Ese gran muro de silencio que el Poder creó para historiarse a él mismo, es otra vez derribado por quien siempre narró la Historia del Pueblo, de las inmensas mayorías que los poderosos siempre buscaron callar.
