Ñvmineyiñ Kimvn (Gathering Knowledge)

Synopsis

The new generations of Mapuce youth, eager to learn about their territory, gather bits of knowledge every day, from the land and from their Elders. By incorporating these insights into their lives, they connect and communicate with the forces inhabiting each space and with their own Mapuce Bafkence spirituality.
