La Venda
Editor
A través de un conjunto heterogéneo y disímil de imágenes y sonidos que combinan planos largos y medios de eventos y prácticas cotidianas citadinas y rurales, los testimonios de diez mujeres que fueron torturadas conforman el centro discursivo del documental y la memoria de un injusto y doloroso pasado.

Director

Popsicles
Director
“This work is an interaction of the space, the symbols and the historical context in which I live as a woman on this side of the continent. It is a rosary of alarm, eternal and circular; the alarm of a woman who desires life, light, truth, and solidarity, but who instead sees and receives death and fear. It is a rejection of all that is destruction, and death, yet is depicted almost attractively as innocence.”
Performance San Pablo-San Martin
Director
Valuable documentary about the life conditions of female sex workers in Santiago de Chile in 1986
