In Chiapas near San Cristobal de las Casas

We are Here teaching a taller , that means seminar in filmmaking at a really wonderful university called the Intercultural University where they speak 15 , yes 15 !!!! Mayan languages and thankfully espanol too ! Frank Hochuil produced the whole thing, brought us over with a panasonic 24p , computers equipped with final cut  and  a great filmmaker Tao Ruspoli who taught camera and editing . Check out his films at www.mangustalafco.com . He is really great … and the teacher here who inspired us  Luis Morales is chiapanesco by conviction as he says .  Next post will be the short the students made. See for yourself , Vivien
