Cosmographies
Cosmografias
Cosmographies is a hybrid film that draws from speculative fiction, observational and poetic documentary, Indigenous futurisms and Indigiqueer perspectives. It interweaves stories of resistance and environmental justice against extractivism in the Atacama Desert,Chile, as an allegory for contemporary plans to colonise the Moon and Mars. Set across 2023 and 2051, it weaves parallel stories of Lickan Antay land and water defenders, engaged scientists and fishing communities in Atacama, with the story of Māori astrobiologist Xuě Noon who finds solace in Mars and slipstreams across spacetime with an urgent message.
