Maize in Times of War

Streaming video - 2016

MAIZE IN TIMES OF WAR (El maíz en tiempos de guerra). Growing “la milpa” is an act of resistance, a profoundly political one.  Maize In Times Of War traces the yearly cycle of four Indigenous maize peasants in different regions of México. This film draws the exceptional process of growing maize, the delicacy of selecting seeds and preparing the land, and the tenacity required throughout the whole process until the harvest arrives.
