About
Ancestral Secret VR is an experience built in cocreation with the Qero indigenous community of Peru. Is a immersive journey through their landscape, where the user gets to know Qero´s cosmovision and connection with nature, visible through animation.
Impact
Our co-created project will empower youth to rediscover and embrace ancestral ways of living in harmony with nature. It cultivates a deeper sense of respect and responsibility towards our environment, leading to a more sustainable future.
Progress
We have concluded the post-production with the wonderful team of NowHere Media led by Gayatri Parameswaran and Felix Gaedtke. Our goal is to secure funding for its international distribution at film festivals, LBE venues, and schools worldwide.
Team
As Latinxs documentarians, we have a bond with a family from the Q’ero nation who chose us to co-create. The team is completed with NowHere Media, with experience in indigenous peoples and VR. Together, we use technology to amplify their message.
