Narcisa
Description
Narcisa reinterprets the traditional myth behind the founding of an indigenous Pasto community. Youth from the community of Pastas/Aldana, in Nariño, Colombia, adapt the myth of the founding of their village to the violent times they have experienced in their lifetimes. The video is the result of a workshop led by local indigenous and non-indigenous filmmakers.
