William Repass

Slant Magazine

Helmut Donsantos’s counterintuitive recombination of what would seem to be mutually exclusive inspirations, each with its own temporal framework, allows him to offer for our contemplation a vision uniquely his own.

Rated: 3.5/4

Fort Worth Report

A visual and auditory treat from writer-director Helmut Dosantos. Surreal and haunting at times, the documentary is a beautiful tribute to the indigenous people and the breathtaking landscape of Mexico.
