Short documentary on Cangrejadas

.
“Cangrejadas” are more than a typical dish in Guayaquil.
It is a tradition that unites families and friends around a table full of flavour. This short documentary explores every step of this experience, from the selection of the crabs to the final celebration, highlighting its cultural importance and the bond it creates between Guayaquileños.

Short Documentary on Mangroves

.
The Estero Salado mangroves cover more than 3,700 hectares. This ecosystem is not only vital because it pumps oxygen to the city, but it is also home to endemic species of flora and fauna. How important is this? Can we do something to contribute to the conservation of this area?
The short documentary answers this and other questions about the last remnants of these habitats.

Blog Art Deco

.
Art Deco is an architectural movement used in the reconstruction of Guayaquil since the 20th century. With the passing of time and new trends, this type of art is replaced with new infrastructures.
The blog shows, through photos and writings, a comparison of the most representative buildings of the city when they were built versus their appearance in the year 2024.

Santa Ana Hill audio story

.
Cerro Santa Ana is the place where Guayaquil is born. There is a myth that justifies the name of the hill. This myth has been told from generation to generation and continues to be a protagonist in this neighbourhood.
This product is an audio story that seeks to expand the myth of the hill and not to lose this valuable tradition.
