Individualism kills the collective.
Absolutely loved how rich the visual symbolism was, almost like a separate narrative told through the material culture - how it changes and transforms.

The representation and how the narrative was rooted in the Wayuu indigenous culture was incredibly done. This is a story on how ambition and greed fracture tradition, family, and community.
