There is a new movie called "Serpent And The Sun: Tales Of An Aztec
Apprentice" will have its Northern California Premiere at the Mendocino Film
Festival.

>>From the film website at http://www.serpentandthesun.com/main.html:

"Tachi is 21 and has lived below the poverty line all of his life. He is a
member of the Revolutionary Zapatista Collective in Mexico City . He is
searching for his roots. Ehe is a 52nd generation Aztec medicine man and
traditional healer (Curandero). Through a series of extraordinary
circumstances the two meet. Tachi's life is changed forever. Extraordinary
and inventive, The Serpent and the Sun was filmed on a month long journey
through Mexico . This riveting "Hybrid Documentary" explores the roots of an
Aztec medicine man and his apprentice while trekking through the mountains
of rural Mexico .

This powerful visual feast combines dreamlike panoramic landscapes with
memorable characters and their heart warming stories while tracing the
adventures of this unlikely duo as they travel throughout rural Mexico on a
journey of epic proportions."
