Felipe Paz is an independent Colombian anthropologist and documentary filmmaker, with a very extensive career having made cultural videos and also worked in the mass media in Colombia and Venezuela. His medium-length film Putchi Pu can be described as collaborative ethno-fiction, as it portrays how conflicts are settled among the Wayúu people. Putchi Pu makes visible the figure of the indigenous "palabrero" and his role in the peaceful resolution of conflicts.
