Synopsis

Guanaqueros, located south of the city of Coquimbo, sits atop an ancient Chango settlement, whose vestiges can still be found among the town's houses. Here, a unique fishing method is practiced: from the hills, the fishermen spot schools of fish and alert the boats to surround them. In their youth, these same fishermen used to explore tombs and search for artifacts to sell to the local collector, who eventually established a museum in the town.

Series Description
A six-part documentary series that shows how the culture of the Chango people, considered extinct until a couple of years ago, is still deeply rooted among many artisanal fishermen who live in the coastal territory of northern Chile.

Reviews

"Through an intimate and visually striking narrative, the series immerses us in the lives of the small-scale fishermen who inhabit the nation’s coastal regions—people who have kept alive the traditions, techniques, and worldview of their ancestors—taking us on a journey through memory and craftsmanship." — Daphne Riffo, Espacio 13C
