Desde y para los pueblos originarios: Nuestra video-producción en Chiapas, México.

This article, made by two voices, has for its fundamental objective to show the true possibility of generating processes of collaboration, also named by the authors as co-labor. In this mode, anthropologists and indigenous people make possible a work where the power position fades away giving origin to egalitarian relations and common bets. Likewise, the experiences lived by both in relation to the audiovisual, have completely different origins, and are assembled in this collaborative contribution to political struggles of the indigenous people. The video has served as a tool of visualize these struggles, being at the interior of the communities or towards the society in general.
