[Linganth] films on indigenous languages?

[Daniel Suslak]

Hi Michael, et al.,

One of my favorites from Mexico is Silvestre Pantaleon (2011, 65 mins) - 
in Oapan Nahuatl with subtitles available in Spanish, French, and 
English. Details here: http://icarusfilms.com/if-silv. This one was 
created by linguistic anthropologist Jonathan Amith with his longtime 
collaborator (the eponymous don Silvestre) and a Mexican filmmaker 
named  Roberto Olivares Ruiz.

Cheers,
Daniel

p.s. you also might want to check out a cool short film entitled "El 
Reloj," by Yolanda Cruz (2013, 7 mins). This piece is in Zapotec and 
Spanish with subtitles in both Spanish and English. You can view it for 
free here: https://vimeo.com/74639951.
