In our current global situation of climate change and environmental catastrophe, many environmental humanities scholars are turning to indigenous ontologies to seek out answers and guidance. The five movies curated for the festival showcase narratives from indigenous communities from several Latin American countries and portray their struggles and strategies of survival. With the festival, we hope to honor their voices by showcasing their work to our Rutgers community.\u00a0<\/span>

\"Guarani<\/p>\n

By Luis Zorraquin<\/span><\/p>\n

In Guaran\u00ed and Spanish with English subtitles<\/span><\/p>\n

A heartfelt story, <\/span>Guaran\u00ed<\/span><\/i> follows fisherman Atilio as he travels with his granddaughter Iara to Buenos Aires. His great desire is to have a grandson to transmit the Guaran\u00ed culture. When he discovers that Iara\u2019s mother, Helena, is pregnant, he decides to go on a long journey and cross borders, with the aim to convince Helena to give birth in the Guarani land\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

Directed by talent to watch Luis Zorraqu\u00edn, <\/span>Guaran\u00ed<\/span><\/i> features an outstanding script. Part road movie and part coming-of-age drama, the film portrays two generations of Paraguayans whose views of the world seem centuries apart. The long journey will make Atilio and Iara understand the real meaning of traditions and family bonds.<\/span><\/p>\n
