With renowned anthropologist Sam Pack, and archeologist, Tomas Gallareta Cervera, we are making a documentary that highlights Mayan culture by depicting the relationship that Mayans have to their history while contrasting their views with the vast tourism industry that revolves around Mayan ruins and culture. Exploring the dichotomy between colonial oppression of Mayans, and the pride, or lack thereof, of Mayan’s heritage. We focus on an old guard of Mayans who have been protecting ruins called the “Puuc Angels” and contrast their efforts to a younger, less interested generation. I am currently editing this footage and creating an educational website. Professional documentary film and website creation and design experience.
