The call was for women from 20 to 40 years old, in a situation of human mobility, and host community, residing in Tulcán, Ibarra, and Esmeraldas.
With a wide variety of women registered, the workshops both virtual and face-to-face in each city. The production of the shorts was done through a tour of Ibarra, El Juncal, Tulcan and Esmeraldas, shooting for two days in each place along the northern corridor of Ecuador. The script was built collectively with the students, through a participatory, inclusive, and horizontal methodology.
«This project aims to use the art of cinema as a tool for social transformation, which invites collective reflection at a local and global level about the migratory reality that is experienced worldwide. It also contributes positively to people’s self-esteem, strengthening the values of community work, the values of fairness and equality in all its forms,” says Nómada Cine Comunitario. (AVV)
