This video documents the play ...qué c(s)iento volando?, a collective creation piece directed by Márquez in collaboration with Puerto Rican visual artist Antonio Martorell and their "Teatreros Ambulantes" students from the University of Puerto Rico. Based on Jean-Claude Carrière's text "The Conference of the Birds" (based, in turn, on a Persian myth), and translated unto Spanish by renowned Puerto Rican writer Ana Lydia Vega, the play revolves around the hardships and the search for happiness at play in the journey of Caribbean immigrants, from Africa to the West Indies to New York.
