หมอกควันสีขาวโพลนและกลิ่นเน่าอันน่าสะอิดสะเอียนจากเหมืองของเมืองอัมสเตอร์ดัมนำไปสู่เรื่องราวของคนพลัดถิ่นในดินแดนวายูทางตอนเหนือของโคลอมเบีย ที่กลายเป็นแพะรับบาปจากการขนส่งถ่านหิน ในงานชิ้นนี้ผู้กำกับ Ana Bravo Pérez ร้อยเรียงเรื่องราวของผู้คน บทสนทนาของคนแปลกหน้า และความเชื่อเหนื่อธรรมชาติ?
Mother Earth's Inner Organs is a journey from Amsterdam to Wayú territory in the North of Colombia following the smoke, the rotten smell of burning Mma – meaning Mother Earth in Wayuunaiki. Bravo-Pérez weaves a narrative that goes from the surface of Mma to its depths. From the experience of the Wayú people and the filmmaker’s reflection on extractivist practices to plastic experimentations that create a lucid dream, an eye opener to how extractivism of coal affects life.

DIRECTOR
Ana Bravo Pérez
Born in the city of Pasto in Abya Yala, Ana Bravo Pérez’s work draws on migration, memory and violence. She uses her own migratory and diasporic experiences as a starting point for her artistic projects investigating suppressed narratives and collective histories. Her experiences have been crucial for building an artistic practice in which personal, decolonial and geopolitical questions merge. An important theme in her work is how to deal with violence visually without representing it, so it can heal colonial wounds instead. Bravo Pérez works with materials such as coal, celluloid and gold to investigate colonial legacies and continued exploitation in the present-day. Ana's work has been shown at EYE Filmmuseum, Amsterdam; Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlin; Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam; TarraWarra Museum of Art, Healesville, Australia; Museum of Contemporary Art, Bahía Blanca, Argentina; Cinematheque, Bogotá; and at film festivals such as Hot Docs Canadian Film Festival; IDFA International Film Festival Amsterdam; Ji.hlava International Film Festival; Internationale Kurzfilmtage Oberhausen; among others.
Ana Bravo Pérez's studies, publications and work in film and the visual arts, have taken her from the University of Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand, to Caracas, Venezuela; and from the International Film School in San Antonio de los Baños, Cuba, to the National University of the Arts in Buenos Aires, Argentina. She holds a Masters degree in Film from The Netherlands Film Academy.
Ana is currently working as AV tutor at ArtEZ University of the Arts in Arnhem. She is also co-founder of the eco-village project I-tekoa in Tigre, Argentina and since 2017 she is an active member of Filmwerkplaats the only artists run film lab in The Netherlands.
