INTERNATIONAL RADIO ONDAS AWARD

Limbo

This bilingual radio program acts to creates a gateway for sound between the United States and Spain. Achieved via its host who, in first person tells of their experience migrating, underpinning it with the testimonies of those near and dear to him. This creates a radiophonic experience which mirrors the economic crisis of 2008, standing out both for the sensitivity and empathy with which it treats the subject. It leads listeners to reflect on the emotional dimension of migration and addresses mental health issues with a great deal of tact. Not only is the narrative outstanding, but so is the sound design, acting to create a sense of intimacy between the voices that appear and the listener.
