Zusammenfassung:
Peruvian alpaca wool has held an important place in the rich textile traditions of Andean highland communities for generations. Among today's cosmopolitan elite, the wool has attained the status of luxury item, enhanced by its manufacture at the hands of indigenous artisans and herders. From remote villages to the capital's fashion runways, the wool bridges Peru's rural, indigenous poor and the urban and global fashion world. This supply chain has become a site of development efforts to alleviate poverty and foster social inclusion within Peru’s high-fashion worlds. ENTRETEJIDO is an observational-ethnographic film that weaves together the different sites and communities involved in making alpaca wool fashions. Varying representations of indigeneity emerge out of these encounters, which both challenge and reproduce historically-rooted racism.
