Honduran filmmaker Laura Bermúdez Mesquıta receives a 5,000$ grant for her project Soy Lluvia (I am Rain)

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Deep within the Honduran rainforest, where the tropical forest guards the remnants of the mythical “White City”, Miskitu art historian Geydy Wood embarks on a journey into the sacred territories of ancient pre-Columbian cultures. In her quest, she deciphers symbols carved in stone that reveal the complex worldview of civilizations still unknown, and there she uncovers a massive and systematic looting that threatens to erase a cultural heritage of humanity.
