Nacho López was a great photographer of the twentieth century, whose teachings on the process of physical-chemical photography are still current. Today, in the digital age, when the magic of developing a photograph in the darkroom is fading, we travel in time through a dark room to live the moment when Nacho López developed and printed his first photograph.

Tu’un Savi

I left my home in Ñuu Savi when I was 15 years old, going on to explore worlds that were different from my own. After I began to train as a documentary filmmaker, I grew interested in learning my family’s language, which I was forbidden to speak as a child. By the time I return, my father has passed away, and his language with him. In this documentary, I search for Tu’un Savi through its speakers.
