Escúchame cantar (listen to me sing) (2016)

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A self-portrait by Karoli, an indigenous Shipibo teen living in the community Cantagallo, in Lima, Peru. Made through documentary workshops I taught in her community, the video was conceived and shot entirely by Karoly; and edited by me, in consultation with her.

Karoli says, “What I want to say with this video and what I want to show is for people to see in us a culture with value. For us, as well as our ancestors, and all those who live in Cantagallo."
