Dicapta strengthens collaboration with independent producers

 

We have been strengthening our bonds with independent producers to make their content available to audiences with disabilities.

Specifically, we have been working with three independent producers to extend the reach of their content. Dicapta has now provided accessibility elements for Teregua's Mesa de Tareas, Tatiana Millan's Los universos de Leyla, and Taylor Leigh Aguilar's SOL. They are all currently available in the DCMP.

Mesa de Tareas is a Colombian documentary that tells the story of four brothers who live in the neighborhood with the highest percentage of refugees in the country. The film follows their lives through three different moments: their childhood, teenage years, and adulthood. The film shows the struggle for survival, where amid adversity, the true riches of humanity, values such as love, solidarity, and family union become the strength and fortune of the protagonists.

Los Universos de Leyla, on the other hand, is a show about four puppets that live a series of adventures with Leyla, a nine-year-old girl. Through imagination, playing, and reading books, they learn to deal with conflicts in their daily lives and find possible solutions.

Finally, SOL is based on director Taylor Leigh Aguilar's life story as a biracial Latina from Pueblo, Colorado. As a blind person, she has a unique perspective, which she imbues her films with. In this movie, she goes to meet her biological father for the first time behind her mother's back.

Making all types of content accessible for everyone is part of our mission, and we hope that these films demonstrate our commitment to this task.
