About Litay

En el 2011 fundé junto con un amigo cineasta y una amiga antropóloga una productora autónoma "Tlazocamati Producciones". El primer documental que rodamos fue sobre la vida de una mujer partera y desde entonces buscamos rodar documentales con el mismo espíritu que impulsó la creación de nuestra productora. Rodar documentales sustentados por intensas investigaciones haciendo uso de herramientas etnográficas y privilegiando una mirada comprensiva y crítica de la realidad. Queremos abordar todas aquella parcelas de la realidad que permanezcan en la oscuridad o que generen incomprensión con el propósito de brindarles una halo de luz. Nuestra línea esta muy centrada en el tema de la mujer, la vida cotidiana, la espiritualidad pero buscamos cada vez más ampliar nuestro abnico temático.En el 2011 estudié el master de antropología visual en la Universitat de Barcelona para afinar la metodología etnográfica y combinarla con las herramientas audiovisuales.
