Cast off these chains, 7min.
Directed by Camila Corina Casanova Arce
In a context marked by repression, scarcity, and exile, this animated short film explores, through a fragmentary and symbolic structure, the echoes of collective trauma. Using rotoscoping and a dark and tense graphic style, the work interweaves real audio testimonies and animations that reinterpret events from recent memory to denounce human rights violations, crimes against humanity, and the humanitarian crisis in Venezuela.
