Kuwoi Wujan. 4:55. Documentary, traditional storytelling, animation. 
This project was carried out with the support of GIZ, aimed at assisting displaced communities and providing insight into their social conditions (as of 2016) for external individuals and communities unfamiliar with their situation. I received invaluable guidance and advice from Professor Felipe Cabrera, whose expertise in anthropology greatly enriched the work.

This short animated film was created in collaboration with the indigenous Jiw community from La Maria, located in the northern Amazon rainforest. Through a condensed version of a traditional Jiw story, Kuwoi Juwan, the film explores the community's unique way of passing down social values and understanding their environment through oral storytelling. It also highlights the clash between these ancestral narratives and the modern challenges they face, such as the profound impact of the Colombian armed conflict on their lives  (2016).
