a disciple of George Fevre, one of the followers of Henri
Cartier-Bresson, a myth of 20th century world photography, first
worked in the field of fashion, then on social stories, and later,
for a few years now, on the theme of the defense of the environment.
Praun is
also shooting a documentary with the same name, in which she
interviews personalities of various disciplines about their
experiences on environmental work, which she expects to present soon
on the island.

City, where she will take a group of Cuban scientists, fine arts and
audiovisual creators, farmers, designers and gastronomic specialists
who have devoted themselves to the defense of the ecology, as well

participated, in literature, audiovisuals and fine arts, the awarded
works of which are on display at Havana’s La Rampa Movie Theater.
