Latidos De Mina. Free Paths Maker

This documentary tackles the injustice and pain caused by antipersonnel-mines and asks for the urgent need to create a protocol of demining signed by all the countries involved.

The film begins with the 24h isolation of the author into a hole in the middle of the desert in order to generate the necessary empathy towards the saharaui community, which serves as a first step in the progressive approach to the reality of antipersonnel-mines’ victims and their daily lives. In this way, the complaints and desires of the community become verbalised. Besides, the author makes interviews, listens, shares and designs a device to explode the mines. It is created from the melphas (saharaui women’s suits), which serve as the candle that moves the wheels that (helped by phosphate) map the way with the word FREE and end up exploding the mine while showing the inhuman damage they provoke.

A call to the signing of an urgent demining protocol.
