Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI).

Carlos, Carmen, and Chema took center stage at NMAI to talk about their films and present the films of their students. We traveled alongside Maya weavers in collaboration with the Maya Traditions Foundation. The event shifted the traditional dynamic of having foreign project founders speak for the community. Instead, Maya presenters, with the help of interpreters, captured the audience directly speaking about themselves, their cultures, and their worlds.
