The objective of this paper is to analyze the implications of a documentary production experience which was carried out with indigenous youngsters in the southern part of Veracruz. During the project, traditional fishing practices used by women of the community of Zaragoza were filmed under a participatory approach. Using this experience and the material filmed, the educational process behind audiovisual production is analyzed, focusing on how the local indigenous identity is strengthened throughout the use of new technologies and participatory methodologies that enable a collective debate on the importance of ancestral knowledge related to the management of territory. The intercultural approach, used in the data analysis, allows us to know more about the production of audiovisual materials in contexts of cultural diversity, the indigenous knowledge, their worldview on the use of territory, and meaningful learning processes.
