Cuando Jacinto cae enfermo, sus parientes llaman a un curandero local para que lo cure.

El Curandero es el primer drama-ficción producido por las comunidades indígenas de Chiapas. Los actores son de Magdalena, una pequeña comunidad de las montañas. (La Iniciativa de Comunicación) -

Mujeres Espíritu (English-language guide)
This film weaves together a collective portrait of five women united by spirituality and poetry, five women who challenge the camera with their words. They don’t know each other personally, but the force of their declamatory speech, unique to each of their territories, brings them together in a filmic “braiding” that bonds them forever. Tzotzil, Mapuzungun, Quechua, and Spanish, are four beautiful languages that form a semantic field that is not only spoken word, but is also enriched by the sonority of each mother tongue transporting us on a spiritual journey with each woman and her territory.

Tote
In her deeply personal debut documentary feature, Tzotzil filmaker María Sojob documents the unexpected encounter between an old man, who is going blind, and his grandaughter, who has a limited memory of her childhood. As the grandfather, weaves a traditional hat, the threads of family history are untangled. Between the silences, it becomes possible to understand the meaning of love in Tzotzil. A deceptively simple film, Tote/Abuelo is a complex portrait that constrasts the point of view of a younger generation with a traditional world that was largely marginalized. (Tucson Cine Mexico) -
