Alba Enid Garcia Rivas is an international award-winning Boricua filmmaker with Taíno Indigenous roots. Garcia Rivas brings a new, uplifting narrative by creating worlds inspired by her ancestors’ stories.
In 2018, the Puerto Rican filmmaker completed Dak’Toká Taíno (I Am Taíno) with executive producer and daughter of Jim Henson, Heather B. Henson of IBEX Puppetry. García used puppets she designed and created for the film about the aftermath of hurricane María. It qualified and ran for an Oscar in 2019, and was shown at the Smithsonian Museum, the Museum of Moving Image-MOMI, the Newark Museum, and HBO Max. It is now being distributed by The Jim Henson Company under the Handmade Puppet Films.
She finished her 4th film, Dangerously Ever After, a stop-motion film that took 7 and a half years to bring to life. She is also developing a Taino-Inspired TV series, a fantasy feature film and a children’s book.
