Resurrection

Resurrección

2016 | Color | 93 min.

The waterfalls of El Salto de Juanacatlán in Jalisco were once known as the “Mexican Niagara Falls”. The sudden arrival of the international industry in the 70s turned its waters into a poisoned hub for the destruction of life. Now, in the village of El Salto, one family rescues its memories, in a battle for the resurrection of the Santiago River’s waters – and for this village’s survival.
