God Is a Woman (2024)

1h 25m 2024 France, Panama, Switzerland

In 1975, acclaimed French documentarian Pierre Dominique Gaisseau ventured to Panama to film the Kuna, an indigenous island community, alongside his wife and daughter. Over a year, he earned their trust and documented their sacred rituals, promising to return the film to them— a promise he never fulfilled. Now, half a century later, the Kuna still await their story, which has become a cherished legend. When a long-lost copy surfaces in Paris, Swiss-Panamanian filmmaker Andrés Peyrot explores this poignant narrative, questioning documentary ethics while celebrating the profound impact of representation on screen.
