Amare: a look at migration in the Costa Chica of Oaxaca from an ethnofiction perspective.

  • Ana Isabel León Fernández

This review is focused on reflecting on the importance of ethnofiction cinema, made from within the communities to make visible the issues and problems that concern them, such as, in this case, migration to the United States. My intention in recognizing Amare (2024) as a work of ethnofiction is to invite the public to see the film from different sensibilities offered by this work that navigates between the thin lines of documentary and fiction, bringing us closer to one of the realities of the Afro-descendant communities of the Oaxacan coast.
