The Life of an Ikoods Family

The Life of an Ikoods Family 1987 Directed by Teófila Palafox La vida de una familia Ikoods

The short film portrays the everyday life of San Mateo del Mar through the story of a family of fishermen, weavers, and merchants in a narrative that blends documentary and fiction. The film thus captures, from the perspective of its members—and specifically through a young female lens—various aspects of the Ikoots people's society and culture, as well as how they wished to document and share them with the outside world.
