Pt II: Cucarachicxs
As the second installment of del corazón nace el enjambre, Pt II: Cucarachicxs is a dance film that follows themes of self-metamorphosis, resistance and revolution. How might our personal and collective identities change when we begin to relate to cockroaches as non-linear ancestors?
