To the eyes of the world they were invisible. 40 years later, their stories will be remembered.

Synopsis

This documentary rescues the valuable work of Martha Colmenares, an indigenous woman from the Zapotec highlands, who in the 1980s filmed the life and customs of her own community, becoming a pioneer of indigenous documentaries. And for the first time, her forgotten story, for forty years, will no longer be invisible.
