When I made "Sorcery", I wanted to reclaim a silenced chapter of Chile’s colonial history. Inspired by real events on the island of Chiloé in the late 19th century, the film follows a young Indigenous girl who seeks justice after her father’s murder. Rather than telling a conventional revenge story, I was drawn to the tension between Western law and Indigenous spiritual knowledge. The landscape—wild, wind‑swept, and mysterious—became a living presence, reflecting both oppression and resistance. I worked with non‑professional actors and Mapuche cultural references to ground the story in authenticity. The film ultimately suggests that justice can take many forms, and that reclaiming ancestral knowledge is itself an act of defiance against colonial power.
