En la boca de la mina
Through the people of El Cobre, an old Cuban mining town, we get to know the celebration of the cimarron tradition and remember the first slave uprisings. Today the first mine of Latin America is closed and its inhabitants live off the sale of religious carvings.
Supay
Two scissor dancing brothers show their tradition and connection to nature in the town of Occochirura, Perú.
School Crossing
While much of the media coverage focuses on the political turmoil in Venezuela, "School Crossing" focuses on an unseen crisis: the education of the next generation of Venezuelan children.
Follow the Sun
Follow The Sun captures the liminal moments of Central American men as they wait for asylum in Mexico City and find themselves in-between grave danger and the hopes of a better life.
