Floating with the Spirits
In Mexico, two sisters prepare for the Day of the Dead, one of the most important Mexican holidays. They are members of the Mazatec community, which has lived in the mountains of Oaxaca for centuries. Together they remember the stories of their grandmother and take us through breathtaking mountain landscapes that are full of knowledge and culture. As they celebrate with their community, a portal opens up, allowing us to enter an interactive universe of community history.
