Chaac + Yum

Inspired by the sacred and ancient relationship between Chaac, the Mayan deity of Rain, and Yum, the Mayan deity of corn, this short erotic drama tells a story about two queer, Mayan-descended Two Spirits who meet at a queer San Francisco bar.

SPECIAL PROGRAMMING AWARD FOR FREEDOM In this poetic and visually hypnotic odyssey through the Amazon rainforest, Indigenous artist Uýra harnesses the interconnecting power of their native, queer, and trans identities to blaze a trail of ecological activism and LGBTQ+ pride across big cities and small villages alike. Crafting garments of eye-popping color and objects found along the way into stunning transformational performances, their reveries dazzle against the decay of environmental racism and transphobia to educate local audiences and remind them of the transformative powers of art and advocacy. Uýra reclaims the natural splendor and ancestral spirit of the land by brilliantly connecting themselves and their work as a prayer to the earth, proving that creative expression and collective action can renew the ground on which they walk. A piece of bold and expressive cinema that seems to hold the future in its hand, this journey is nothing short of a miracle.

UÝRA – The Rising Forest

Journeying from town to town in the Amazon rainforest, Uýra showcases their Indigenous, queer, and trans identities through dazzling performance art for local audiences to combat the ravages of climate change, environmental racism, and transphobia.
