Jeissy Trompiz’s ‘Three Houses’ Explores Post-Maduro Venezuela
Filmmaker Jeissy Trompiz left his hometown of Maracaibo, Venezuela, in 2014 to study filmmaking in Cuba, remaining away for years due to the economic crisis, the pandemic, and passport renewal issues. When he finally returned, the shock of a transformed country inspired him to create the documentary project titled "Three Houses." Selected for the Vancouver Film Festival's Business Hub Works-In-Progress Forum, the film serves as a video letter to a Brazilian friend. It highlights a Venezuela where Afro and Indigenous communities exist on the periphery of the periphery, reflecting years of deep socio-political turmoil and personal cinematic therapy for the director.
