#EarthDay with Rebecca Basaure (rbasaure) & Mariano Carranza (marianocarranza)
ImillaSkate follows a collective of Indigenous women in Bolivia redefining identity, movement, and connection to place on their own terms. Wearing traditional polleras, these young women skate through the streets of Cochabamba, turning their boards into expressions of cultural pride, freedom, and belonging within the landscapes they call home. In a world where being both Indigenous and female often means fighting to be seen, ImillaSkate captures a powerful shift driven by resilience, sisterhood, and community. “From the first time we saw a cholita in pollera drop into a bowl, we knew this was more than skateboarding, it was resistance,” the filmmakers share. “This film is a love letter to Bolivia, to sisterhood, and to everyone who’s ever been told they don’t belong.”
