PACHAMAMA’S PATH :: PISAC, PERU

Kawsay Raymi :: Documentary

Kawsay Raymi “Happy Life in Quechua” is a stunning celebration of the universal interconnection, reciprocity, and respect that form the basis of the indigenous Andean value system. Directed and produced by Pachamama’s Path in collaboration with the community of Amaru, in the Sacred Valley of Peru, Kawsay Raymi provides authentic insight into the ancient roots of contemporary Andean culture while highlighting the struggles that have made its current existence possible. Structured on the Andean agrarian ritual calendar, the film documents the festivals of Pukllay, Qoyllur Ritti and several others.

Mana Studios offered on-site production including editing, motion graphics and sound sweetening while maintaining management of their mutimedia assets. Mana Studios is a proud supporter of this wonderful organization and happily facilitates donations to their work. The most recent focus of Pachamama’s Path is the creation of a local Waldorf School that celebrates ancient Andean culture and values.

COMMUNITIES of Q’EROS :: APU WAMALIPPA, PERU

Tinkuy :: Documentary

In June of 2007, members of the communities of Q’eros asked Mana Studios to make a website that would allow people from all over the world to learn about their development concerns. The project began small but quickly grew into a full multi-media base that includes a library of video statements made by community authorities. In order to make the site self-sustaining, Mana Studios trained a media specialist from the community. The website is managed by Mana Studios but all media collected from the community is the sole property of the Communities of Q’eros.
