Weaving the Past Editor, Maria Honrado, shares some of the challenges of editing a film that has such a sweeping scope and was informed by so much source material. She also reveals how she grew connected to the people and the stories of Weaving the Past and why films like this are important to understanding the plight of immigrants.

Maria’s editorial agility in combining still images, super 8 film, standard and high definition video so seamlessly, becomes a character of it’s own that underlies a progressive and often magical sense of wonder as this sometimes tragic story unfolds. Originally from Spain, Maria’s involvement in the project is a blessing indeed as her background in graphic design enabled her to confidently create maps and animations for the film that evolved as the story did.

The first part of the interview is in English and the second part, in Spanish. A subtitled version of the Spanish portion is coming soon.
