In 1915, Ecuador was a profoundly unequal country, where seven families concentrated land, capital, and political power in their hands. From the cocoa plantations on the coast to the textile workshops in the highlands, their influence reached every corner of the nation. But they were also the ones who established the first modern banks, financed the railroads, and connected Ecuador to international markets. Their story is complex: a mix of exploitation and progress, entrepreneurial vision and oligarchic dominance. In this documentary, we reveal who these seven families were, how they amassed their power, what conflicts they had among themselves, and how their legacy remains present in Ecuador's economic structure today. A story that explains much of what Ecuador is today.

Sería interesante publiquen más sobre nuestra Historia. Que interesante ver gente visionaria que logro hacer conección es con Europa y poner el nombre del Ecuador bien alto. Y que ironía hoy nos niegan las visas de entrada. Cuando deberíamos tener libre entrada como los Chilenos. Pero claro a que se debe. Pues a la delincuencia actual que se ha desarrollado acá y en lugar de ser gente considerada, no pueden tener libertad de ingreso, causado por el comportamiento de ciertos grupos de personas. No todos somos delincuentes. Como ecuatoriana esto me causa tristeza. No se pudo honrar a nuestros antepasados como debíamos por sus grandes logros!!
Es más, tengo entendido que Caamaño era dueño de Tenguel, la principal hacienda cacaotera que luego inició el auge del banano, antes de los Aspiazu y no, NO PERDIÓ todo, reinvirtió en banano.
Urrutia, que era de la línea Jijón, también realizaba industria con casas alemanas, de hecho traía, no solo la maquinaria, sino operarios y maestros de talleres, para industrializar las haciendas de Chillo.
