Centinelas del silencio
1971 | B/N | 18:00
An aerial visit across the archaeological sites in Mexico, including Teotihuacán, Monte Albán, Mitla, Tulum, Palenque, Chichén Itzá, and Uxmal. The narration highlights aspects of pre-Columbian cultures and focuses on their achievements in mathematics and astronomy, while also questioning how and why these societies seemed to disappear—leaving behind their structures as silent sentinels.
