The House of the Wind

In this expressive and community-centered work, Wayuú director Marbel Vanegas Jusayu documents the social, spiritual, and environmental impacts of the installation of a wind farm in Apotnojushi, a historically marginalized community that remains committed to its sovereignty. Women leaders such as Ana Rosa Jusayu, the director’s mother, work to strengthen the social fabric, activate historical memory, and assert their right to determine their future. Through the voices and living portraits of community members, the piece reflects in its vignettes the community’s deep connection to its ancestral territory.
