Watch anytime between September 11-21. A conference becomes a crossroads. A drumbeat carries survival. The universe retold through Black trans creation. A girl chasing perfection through magic. Love pulled apart, examined, undone. Seven films that move through grief, lineage, and becoming where resistance is intimate, and transformation refuses to wait.
Isiatinu is a young woman passionate about the art of drumming, in a community where this practice is forbidden for women. After facing discrimination, she decides to flee into the wilderness, guided by her ancestral spirits who seem to be calling her. Throughout her journey—during which she communicates through the distant beats of her own drum—Isiatinu faces challenges that help her gain strength and determination, training until she masters the instrument enough to convince her community of her talent.
Isiatinu es una chica apasionada por el arte del tambor, en una comunidad donde esta práctica es prohibida para las mujeres. Al ser discriminada, decide huir al monte, guiada por sus ancestras que parecen llamarla.
A lo largo de su travesía, durante la cual va comunicándose con los toques lejanos de su propio tambor, Isiatinu se enfrenta a desafíos que le harán ganar fuerza y determinación, y la entrenan hasta conseguir un dominio del instrumento suficiente para convencer a la comunidad de su talento.
