Description / Descripción
Mujeres Espiritu aborda a cinco mujeres unidas por la espiritualidad y la poesía. Ellas no se conocen pero la fuerza declamatoria las une. Las lenguas stotsil, mapuzungun, kechua y español dan forma al campo de la semántica que, más allá de la palabra, enriquecen la sonoridad de la lengua materna, invitando al espacio espiritual propio de cada mujer y su territorio. (Coordinadora Latinoamericana del Cine y Comunicacion De Los Pueblos Indigenas - CLACPI)
This film weaves together a collective portrait of five women united by spirituality and poetry, five women who challenge the camera with their words. They don’t know each other personally, but the force of their declamatory speech, unique to each of their territories, brings them together in a filmic “braiding” that bonds them forever. Tzotzil, Mapuzungun, Quechua, and Spanish, are four beautiful languages that form a semantic field that is not only spoken word, but is also enriched by the sonority of each mother tongue transporting us on a spiritual journey with each woman and her territory. (Indigenous Cinema '22, Hemispheric Institute)
