| description | Based on an ethnography of the First Jumara International In-digenous Film Festival, which took place in an Emberá com-munity in Panama, the aim of this article is to delve deeper into the connection between the processes of ethnicity derived from Indigenous cinema and the processes of ethnicity deri-ved from the meaning given to that cinema at specific even-ts. At Jumara, Indigenous cinema was the reason for affirming Emberá culture and for championing, in a markedly festive and performative way, the group’s main demands in a celebration in which the body and its ornamentation took on a special role. It is argued that the ethnographic focus on festivals organized in Indigenous communities makes it possible to fully analyze the committed and activist dimension of Indigenous cinema. |

A partir de la etnografía del Primer Festival Internacional de Cine Indígena Jumara, celebrado en una comunidad emberá de Panamá, el objetivo de este artículo es profundizar en la conexión de los procesos étnicos derivados del cine indígena con los procesos étnicos derivados del significado atribuido a este cine en eventos específicos. En Jumara, el cine indígena fue el motivo para afirmar la cultura emberá y reivindicar, de forma marcadamente festiva y performativa, las principales demandas del grupo en una celebración en la que el cuerpo y su ornamentación asumieron un papel especial. Se argumenta que el enfoque etnográfico de los festivales organizados en las comunidades indígenas permite analizar en profundidad la dimensión comprometida y activista del cine indígena.
