Maize Daughters

Español


A midwife and an educator, both indigenous women, transform the process of birth into a battle against gender violence. At Yach’il Antzetic shelter in San Cristóbal de las Casas, México, they work with women from native communities, survivors as themselves. In this path they heal old wounds and start changing the future, starting by raising their daughters differently.
