Hundreds suffered eye trauma from rubber bullets and tear gas during protests in Santiago, set against the backdrop of environmental disasters in South America.
Synopsis
In Santiago, Chile, mass protests erupted over low wages and the high cost of living, leading to widespread police brutality. During this turmoil, artist Domínguez volunteered at an animal shelter for wildlife affected by the devastating forest fires in Bolivia's Chiquitania and Amazon rainforests. Madre Drone intertwines imagery of a toucan blinded by flames with scenes of laser-clad robots, cosmic serpents, and footage of protests, where hundreds suffered injuries from rubber bullets and tear gas. The 21-minute film connects environmental disaster with human political crisis.
