In late 2023, we began planning for a monumental undertaking at WINGS – a new documentary film! Thanks to the incredible generosity of our friends Margaret Graff and Richard Higgins, we were able to secure the services of Javier Borrayo, a talented Guatemalan filmmaker who happened to know and love WINGS since having a vasectomy with us 5 years ago!
Over the course of 2024, we worked with Javier and our field staff to collect powerful footage of the realities of the patients we serve, the beautiful landscapes of Guatemala, and in-depth views into the profound hope we have for the future.
In November 2024, we held our world premiere at Cerveceria 14 just outside of Antigua, Guatemala. A nearly perfect evening was had by our WINGS Board of Directors, current supporters, and caring community members. Our Executive Director, Eleanor Unsworth, interviewed Javier who explained why this film and its message of hope is so important.
If you haven’t already seen the new film, head over to our webpage at www.wingsguate.org or watch the film directly on YouTube.
As always, we are so grateful to our supporters around the globe for caring about our work and making it possible.
