Synopsis

She is Manuela Xocol “Ita”, a broadcaster and communicator, the fifth protagonist of the short documentary series Seres de Niebla.

“Radio is a very special tool where we defend our rights; giving girls, adolescents, young women and the whole community their own voice”.

The Seres de Niebla series of short documentaries by the Lemow Collective is a communication project that seeks to use photography and audiovisuals (short documentaries), to portray and raise the visibility of the struggle by many Guatemalan women who, through their work spaces, are creating better living conditions for many women. Raising the visibility of the struggles of women’s leaders provides recognition of their work and contribution to building a more tolerant society.
