In this intimate, tender journey through collective resistance in El Salvador, women whose lives are deeply bonded with water and land—reflecting the feminist concept of the body-territory relationship—traverse through a mellow-paced, tropical dream. In a fluid experience of time and place, Vena Acuática reveals the complex layers of El Salvador’s natural ecosystem, piecing together the reality of a region confronting a legacy of environmental negligence through a collage of documentary vignettes.

Vena Acuática is a participant of the 2024 (Egg)celerator Lab.
