About this event

Deep in the Darién jungle, a Wounaan elder and a rebellious teenager from the city embark on a journey in search of the sacred kokorrdit bird, a symbol of spiritual balance and ancestral wisdom for their people. As they navigate the challenges of the forest and the threats facing their territory, they discover a deeper connection with their roots, their culture, and the stories passed down through generations. A poetic and powerful journey into the heart of the Wounaan world, where nature, memory, and identity come together in a celebration of ancestral knowledge and resilience.
