Community Project
The Our Stories, Our History project had the central objective of using basic cinematography tools as a means to express personal and communal identities, both in the present and projected into the future. Starting with discussions about what cinema is and how a film is made, the sessions evolved in a way that each participant became an actor, screenwriter, director, and producer of the different stories that emerged. By utilizing elements from real life as well as fictional narratives, the techniques of filmmaking were employed as a pathway for self-discovery and community understanding.
The result is a series of short films that illustrate the memories, research, and expectations of a group of young individuals from the Colegio de Bachilleres located in Río Grande.
