An art video inspired by what at first were considered isolated events,
but which gradually turned into an historic hecatomb,
a holocaust against women.
Since 1993, more than 260 women between the ages of 15 and 25
have been violently murdered in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico.
A good example of a modern city: industrialized and violent;
located at the border, this is a kind of no man’s land, a city of transit,
a work zone -very insecure for women.
A place where thousands of women survive dreaming of " paradise ".
Here, the desert becomes a metaphor of isolation,
solitude, and uprooted identity.
