Join us for Part 1 of our pairing of contemporary documentary films for Hispanic Heritage Month. Brief discussions will follow both films. 

In September, we will be screening Gods of Mexico (2022): With visually stunning landscapes and immersive sound, GODS OF MEXICO is a poetic survey of the vast landscapes and rich diversity of several communities of rural Mexico. Using richly saturated color and hypnotic black-and-white interludes, filmmaker Helmut Dosantos takes viewers through salt pans, deserts, highlands, jungle, and underground mines—paying tribute to those who fight to preserve their cultural identity amidst the shadows of modernization.

No registration required; please plan to arrive on time as the documentary will start promptly.
