Description
In a traditional community home in the Costa Rican jungle near La Fortuna, a group of tourists listen to Lilidia Quiros as she shares her knowledge of the Maleku people - a heritage she hopes to pass on to her daughter. "It is a privilege that even though we are a small community, we still maintain our culture, our language, our tradition," she says.
Located at the foot of the Arenal volcano, the Maleku people are trying to resist being overshadowed by the booming tourism in the region, known for its hot springs and rich biodiversity. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES ARRANGED IN SEQUENCES
