The Nahuas of the Sierra de Guerrero | Mexico

The fight of the Jaguar-Men: Nahualt was the language of the Aztecs. Today, many rites from the pre-Columbian era survive on the fringes of the Catholic religion. To the sound of the Teponastle, this drum which embodies the God Texcatlipoca, the Jaguar Men mingle with the faithful and will martyr themselves and flagellate themselves to the point of blood to implore Saint Nicholas and intercede with the Gods for rain to fall.
Director : Javier PEREZ SOLANO & Alain BOURRILLON

Like watching kids mimic their parents at parties wearing the clothes dancing but not nothing why. Beautiful yet sad to see their culture filtering away

A very biased depiction of the nahuatl people. This narrator can't even pronounce some of the words.

Great doc, the writing was extremely biased, my people are not poor, pheasants, or struggling. They know how to live with less and live happier doing it. Dodge the bias and support our local original communities 🪶🪶🪶🦅🪶🪶🪶
