Stories of Whisky & Wine - A Journey to Chile

Inspired by La Viajera ('The Traveller'), a painting by Chilean artist Camilo Mori, follow the journey of four ghosts through time and space as they embark on an uncertain and evocative journey.

Stories of Whisky & Wine - A Journey to Chile

About Stories of Whisky & Wine - A Journey to Chile

As they cross oceans and the vast expanses of the Chilean countryside to the windswept plains of the Atacama Desert, they encounter trials and tribulations, joys and sorrows. Through their tales of migration, hope, and resilience, bear witness to the enduring human spirit in all its complexity and beauty.

Join storytellers Sandra Agustina MacDonald, Trinidad Cabezón, Caroline Carmichael and Selina Graham, with musicians Jorge Sandoval and Cecilia Prieto on this mesmerizing journey through time and space, as we uncover the mysteries of the Traveller and her companions, and celebrate the pivotal role of women in shaping the future of a nation.
