In a departure from metropolitan hubs, a new audiovisual cypher revitalizes the sonic trench of southern Chile, weaving together community memory, historical archive, and old-school codes.

The challenge for filmmakers from the Global South is not merely about creating films but understanding the context from which they are made. In non-hegemonic communities, there lies the potential to challenge the monopoly of images and forge alternative perspectives.

With the original concept and overall production helmed by filmmaker Deborah Araya, the film examines the fragility of the mind, memory, and fear through independent shorts connected by a common concept.

Isabel Tobar, the manager of the Valdivian Cultural Corporation organizing the festival, expressed, "The festival, as a winter ritual, has transformed into a space and opportunity for connection, emotion, and collective transformation, aiming both through its lineup and outreach activities to foster the social appropriation of culture as an active practice of our cultural rights, understanding art as part of who we are."
