To Go Away and Come Back

With narrations of his mother's subconscious induced-coma dreams, and super 8mm memories from his constant house moves, the director composes an essay-letter on death, family and distance.

Aurelia and Pedro

Fog rolls across the green highlands of the Wixáritari in Western Mexico. Young Pedro lives here with his mother Aurelia, isolated from the rest of the world. Pedro leads the goats out to graze and explores his surroundings playfully, while Aurelia weaves fine cloth, gathers firewood and prepares food. A documentary portrait of the symbiotic relationship between a small Indigenous family and their remote homeland.
