Ana Armengod on Exploring Her Indigenous and Basque Revolutionary Heritage in Film, Getting Deported, and Cuban Self-Immolation

On this latest episode of SCENE REPORT we talk with Ana Armengod -- who also goes by Humanleather -- about her varied artistic practices: visual art, filmmaking, poetry and music. We speak about telling immigration stories in her experimental films, her own immigration and deportation story, exploring her family history through art, singing in Pittsburgh hardore punk band De Rodillas, and exploring a little-known women’s self-immolation protest movement in Cuba. Recorded in my kitchen on 5/31/24.
