Introducing
Winner Canvas Award Mooov Film Festival 2021.
Synopsis
Three stories intertwine in a small village in Oaxaca. The Sierra Mixteca – a mountainous region between Puebla and Oaxaca – is sometimes called “Nudo Mixteco”, which translates to “Mixtecan knot” and refers to the three intertwining stories. It does not paint a pretty picture of the patriarchal village. María’s father rejects her because of her lesbian relationship, and at the same time she has to bury her mother. Esteban returns after working in the USA for five years, and at once demands the same old rights with his wife, Chabela. Toña was abused by her uncle as a child so she flees to the capital. She realizes her daughter, who she left behind with her mother, suffers the same sad fate.

This year, for our annual festival, we'll be taking you on a tour of Mexico City, with open-air screenings and special events! As a pioneer of Latin American cinema, Mexico City has had an eventful cultural history, seeing the birth or welcoming of many directors considered to be true pillars of the seventh art from its beginnings right up to the present day.
