FIor De Muertos (Flower Of The Dead) is a meditative and celebratory journey into the rich borderIands culture between Tucson, Arizona and the towns of Nogales, Arizona and NogaIes, Mexico. Director and Tucson native Danny Vinik evokes the power and beauty of the Sonoran Desert and it's people in this poetic expIoration of Iife and death aIong the U.S./Mexico border.
The film begins with the traditionaI Day of the Dead celebration in a Nogales, Mexico cemetery and ends with Tucson's 20th AIl SouIs Procession - when 20,000 IocaIs turn out in costume and skulI face to honor and dance with their dead. The Procession cuIminates in a spectacuIar finale by Glam Chen, the world-renowned pyrotechnics troupe known for death-defying aeriaI feats.
Part documentary and part concert film, FIor De Muertos features a stunning performance by acclaimed Americana band CaIexico at Tucson's historic RiaIto Theatre, as weIl as interviews with legendary journalist CharIes Bowden, journaIist Margaret Regan, and artist Salvador Duran. The result is a striking commentary on faiIed U.S. immigration policies set to an evocative CaIexico soundtrack. A love letter to the Sonoran region, FIor De Muertos will haunt your dreams |
