5 GIFS of indigenous (Mixteco & Triqui) actress Yalitza Aparicio.
(1/5) GIF of Yalitza’s character, Clara, looking up. She is standing in front of a doorway. There is another woman standing next to her, but we cannot see her face. Clara’s black hair is pulled back in a ponytail. She is wearing a jean jacket and gold hoop earrings. Clara is also holding a blanket.
(2/5) GIF of Clara and an older woman (her mother) sitting on a bed in an attic illuminated by candlelight. Her mother is tenderly braiding Clara’s hair while Clara fidgets with something on her lap. Both women are wearing traditional indigenous clothing with long tan skirts and rebozos (shawls). Her mother’s shawl is black and Clara’s is a cream color.
(3/5) GIF of Clara and another woman (her godmother) holding a baby. Clara and the woman are making the sign of the cross with their hands. Clara’s long black hair is down and she is wearing a gray t-shirt. Clara’s godmother has bangs and has her hair pinned up. The baby is swaddled in a white blanket and is wearing a white hat. All three of them are looking up at something.
(4/5) GIF of Clara and her mother walking outside in a procession. Both of them are holding candles and are dressed in their traditional indigenous garb. Clara’s mother is holding flowers as she looks down and speaks to Clara. Clara is holding her baby in her arms. Her hair is in a ponytail. There is another woman in the background also holding a candle. The caption reads “You haven’t dreamed of her?” with Clara responding, “No, have you?”
(5/5) Close up GIF of Clara in a dark forest. Her eyes are wide and she looks at something off screen in awe. She is wearing her cream colored rebozo and an intricately beaded necklace.
