For a body that migrates, a cartography.
Draw a map of ours, the body that travels.
A map that accounts for these battles, the many.
Let the blood travel, until you reach the earth that is no longer root.
A map that gives an account of the slave hands that we are, that they hold, without even knowing which one of all the empires.
A map that stops exiling us and receives us and no longer expel us.
A map that takes us home.

Argentina | 2017 | 30’ | Documental
Para un cuerpo que migra, una cartografía.
Trazar un mapa nuestro, el cuerpo que viaja.
Un mapa que dé cuenta de estas batallas, las tantas. Que recorra la sangre, hasta llegar a la tierra que ya no es raíz. Una mapa que dé cuenta de las manos esclavas que somos, que sostienen, sin siquiera saber qué cuál de todos los imperios.
Un mapa que deje de exiliarse y nos reciba y ya no nos expulse.
Un mapa que nos lleve a casa.
