Through a series of interviews conducted with city and rural street vendors, the artists recount childhood memories, educational experiences, cultural life, and current issues facing Mayan women. These interviews and monologues encompass the women’s voices and include stories of domestic violence, street selling, and mystical practice. Performance in Spanish with English supertitles.
