Our take

With this quietly poetic film, documentary filmmaker Carlos Hagerman pays a heartfelt homage to his parents, who over the years have worked to assist indigenous communities in rural Mexico. A cheerful celebration of family and the value of memory, as well as a gentle ode to what the future holds.
