In rural Mexico, resistance to modernization showcases the diversity of Native Peoples and Afro-descendant communities, honoring daily labor and preserving cultural identity. It explores a “Lost Atlantis” where diverse possibilities resist the rapid march of progress.
Drinking in the striking vistas of Mexico’s vast natural landscapes, Helmut Dosantos’s poetic documentary unearths the majestic within the mundane. Arising from impressionistic vignettes of agricultural rituals is a tender philosophy of life, one that sits in perfect harmony with its environment.
