Inti Jacanamijoy’s film embodies the ancestral resonances of his Wayuu lineage. It presents a narrative that brings together the threads of his grandfather's long journey – a tapestry of longing and memory, tracing José Agustín's forced separation from his immediate family in La Guajira and being plunged into the strict confines of a Catholic education. The barren landscapes of La Guajira, presented here in striking 4:3 aspect ratio, emerge as a poignant reverie – a final resting place for the grandfather's mortal remains. Within the film's dream-like tone, familial dialogue echoes with a haunting reverberation, capturing the essence of an endangered community on the brink of oblivion. The result is a record of collective remembrance and a powerful testament to resilience in the face of cultural erasure.
