Accompanied by an original soundtrack by Brazilian post-punk band Rakta, Beatriz Santiago Muñoz’s first feature film, Oriana, borrows its structure and subject from Monique Wittig’s 1969 feminist novel Les Guérillères. Filming in her home of Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria, Beatriz collaborated with a cast of friends and colleagues to dream up a society no longer haunted by colonialism, patriarchy, and white supremacy.
