PANAMA

It is not the body we look at, but the work it carries

An episode from the series BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE

Synopsis

On the Guna Islands, we watch mola being made. Everything is important: the choice of fabrics, the cutting, the layering and, above all, the transmission of from mother to daughter.

In the Darién region, Emberá women prepare natural dyes and paint children's skin during a family ritual.

All these women remind us that beauty is closely linked to everyday life and intergenerational bonds.
