El Bohío (2019)

Portrait of El Bohío, a traditional structure recreated in the backyard of the home of Luis Muñoz Marín, the first Puerto Rican elected governor (1948-1964). Infamous as the place where he hosted politicians and intellectuals. Filmed after the passing of Hurricane María, which tore off the straw roof and ravaged the trees around it to reveal modern, cement walk-ups behind it. Shot on 16mm film and hand-developed with Anamú, a medicinal plant native to Puerto Rico.
