Between the image and the body, the visual and the living, Ana Pi embarks upon a poetic and political research into ancestral sacred gestures of Haiti and their perpetuation in the imagination today. A time for learning from her contemporary Haitian artists and a time to open a fantastic dialogue with the experimental filmmaker Maya Deren and the archives she offered the world.
