Rooted in the Taíno belief that the island is a living, feminine being, where life begins within her cave-womb and sacred waters. An immersive landscape charged with spiritual and cultural meaning.
La isla está viva was directed by Ciara Castillo.
La isla está viva runs for 8min, and was released in 2025.
