The monthly CineNoche film series features award winners from the 25 Cine Las Americas International Film Festival. The Ecuadorean film Miwene was the Audience Award winner for Best Documentary Feature.
Steeped in the long oral tradition of Waorani storytelling, Gange Yeti shares her own coming-of-age story as a young Waorani woman living deep within the Amazon rainforest. Following Gange and her community for over 11 years, the film captures her transition from a quiet teenager into a confident young mother at a critical turning point for her culture and rainforest.
As the granddaughter of one of the last Waorani elders who lived in complete isolation before outside contact, Gange is determined to capture her grandmother’s unique experience while she still can -- balancing school, motherhood, and tradition along the way.
The film is in Spanish, Waoterero, and English with English subtitles.
