Synopsis
The lifestyle of a rural community in Mexico, revolves around the preservation of a vital plant that sustains their way of life: the maguey. While preserving ancestral traditions, each member of the community contributes with their unique skills, creating a dynamic rooted in collaboration and connection with nature.
This observational-essay documentary short film is a story of resilience and love for the land, serving as a heartfelt tribute to my cherished family and the plant that has nourished us for generations.
