Documenting stories of Stateside CHamorus with Manny Crisostomo
It’s a simple premise: To photograph and share the stories of CHamorus from the Marianas living away from the home islands in a visual documentary, “Manaotao Sanlagu: CHamorus from the Marianas” translated as “our people, the CHamorus, overseas.”

About us
Fina'denne' started from a shared passion for the culture and its people, language, and history. We focus on partnerships and projects that promote equity and boost social cohesion.
And like many of you, we've been doing this work for a while now. It's in our blood. It's how our Manåmko' (elders) raised us, and it's how we raise our children.
