Mariluz Guerra
Auteur Filmmaker & Founder
I'm an indigenous Kankuama woman from a small city of Colombia. Valledupar. With really warm weather, cold tap water and late December's seasons of strong winds that inspired my searching through the audiovisual arts.
Through my creative work I can recognize the inner shadows and lights for the inner and outer harmony which is the most important work of each human being. With this paradigm I can share different forms of self and collective expression, always searching for better ways to support changes in the detrimental beliefs of our society. Always towards the light.
