Movie Info

A tender, yet powerful, coming-of-age story, The Wind and the Water is a rare feature from Panama that offers an unprecedented glimpse into the way that identity, youth agency, and cultural transition play out in a native pueblo on the edge.

Machi and Rosy are two native Kuna Yala babies born at the same time but under very different circumstances. Machi grows up in Kuna Yala territory speaking the native tongue and learning the traditional ways of his fishing village. Rosy grows up

Unrated, 1 hr. 40 min.

Wind and the Water is not an earth-shattering film, but it replays a familiar story in a novel setting and achieves a lyrical intensity.
