These hats are among the most expensive in the world due to the intricate handcraft involved. A high-quality Panama hat can take over 6 months to make and cost more than $20,000. Simón Espinal, a world-renowned craftsman, started learning the craft at age 14. His work is admired by artists and celebrities like Sylvester Stallone and Brad Pitt.
We are Jessica (Ecuador) and David (Barcelona). Together, we write and direct the series ANCESTRAL ROUTE; a journey to the sacred places of South America, so full of wisdom and brave people who stood firm against the invasion of the Western world, preserving in their soul and rituals the richness left by their ancestors. Indigenous peoples whose worldview rises strongly against a planet that asks humanity to reconnect with it and feel part of it; not owners.
