Yo no canto por cantar (2025)

"Yo no canto por cantar" follows Mauricia Saavedra, a rural Chilean folk singer, as she navigates life in a deeply conservative environment shaped by machismo and religious traditions. Through her music, Mauricia confronts discrimination, personal loss, and social exclusion, transforming her voice into a tool for resilience and healing. As she connects with other women who share similar experiences, the film explores how traditional singing becomes a space for collective expression, resistance, and empowerment in contemporary rural Chile.
