we've just returned from a looooong day filming in the streets of La Paz during a huge festival. it's the city's birthday... but of course Teatro Trono is not into the normal marching band fare, and went all out with 20-some wildly colorful drummers, dancers and fire-breathers. and of course, this was all not to simply add to the festivities. we marched to draw attention to a partner organization's cause: the Asociación de Familiares de Desaparecidos wants to bring justice to the individuals responsible for the disappearance of their family members during Bolivia's dictatorship.it was amazing to see the faces of astonished La Paz residents, who in the midst of their reveling and normal parade-watching (school bands, military, civil associations, etc), were suddenly confronted with a troupe of fire-breathing clown-clad drummers shouting for justice. much wowing, much confusion, and much applause.
and for many (our whole crew and the whole troupe included, I believe,) much joy.
the photos in this post are from a shoot we had in Satellite City last night, when the actors were doing some shadowplay to trace for their backdrop.

Filming in Bolivia!
Hola buena gente!
We arrived four days ago here in La Paz/El Alto, and have hit the ground running (well, wheezing from the 15,000+ feet altitude). We've reconnected with Teatro Trono, who are crazy excited to have us here, and are madly preparing for the upcoming tour in the Theater-Truck. We've had two days of filming thus far, and we are all fantastically impressed with the quality of people, places and events that we have to work with.
Here's Nico, our soundman, in the midst of our lighting equipment in the theater in Ciudad Satélite-Satellite City (how cool is that name for a location?).
Here's the view from nearby our homebase in La Paz, where we rest/recover/review footage, and plan for the next day's moviemakingmagic. Not too bad...
And here's the cultural center we're filming from, made mostly of recycled materials:
We'll keep you updated as we go...
abrazos de los Andes!
