There Are More Piñatas Than People in This Mexican Town | Short Film Showcase

[@NatGeo]

In a town full of artisans, some families have been creating piñatas for over 50 years. What did you find most interesting about this town's piñata culture?

[@GandalfTheTsaagan]

National Geographic It's evident that they're skilled artisians, they look really good, no wonder that many feel bad for breaking them

[@PimiPetty]

Where is it? What town of México?

[@luuu_.7724]

National Geographic i Live in México Puebla

[@davidreyez3200]

My father got diabetes type 2 becuase of piñatas. Its a gateway drug.. jaja joken.

[@AzlianaLyana]

At the end of the day, it's an art that's meant to be broken and smashed. But, if it does make the kids happy, all the more reasons to make it then. I hope they continue to give joy to the kids. Thanks National Geographic for sharing.

[@NatGeo]

You're right, Azliana! We can appreciate both the beautiful craftsmanship and the delightful joy of the children that these piñatas showcase.

[@TurboSqu1d]

"You sell joy to children" as they stomp in Dora's face haha Good film though, nice cinematography

[@renoblaauw783]

Dora entered the wrong hood

[@Sanjeet_28]

Reno Blaauw yeah , she sure did

[@TheNesbittExperience]

I love that an entire town shares in this beautiful art form!

[@NatGeo]

We too love how this traditional art form connects the entire community together!

[@RodrigoRangel1]

I loved what he said in the end: "As long as there are children in the world, there will be piñatas, there will be parties, and there will be fun." So simple yet so beautiful!

[@rodan14]

Vivo en Mexico y nunca he visto piñatas tan bien hechas como esas, los locales lo ven como algo cotidiano sin mucha importancia, pero otros las hacen por amor a la tradicion mexicana

[@lg-mf2ep]

This really brought back great memories of the first time I made a pinata with a balloon and newspaper, what a great town of artists

[@NatGeo]

We're so happy this video brought back nostalgic memories of creating your own piñata, Leola! It's truly amazing to see Francisco and his family inspiring their community with the art of piñata making.

[@davidrivero6380]

Es increíble que hayan llegado hasta acá soy originario de un pueblo vecino y además mi padre también produce piñatas que lindo que tomen en cuenta a los artesanos de esa comunidad.

[@mariaelenaluna5903]

Disculpa donde es ese pueblito y k nombre tiene?

[@davidrivero6380]

@@mariaelenaluna5903 Se llama San José Buena Vista, está en el municipio de Otzolotepec Estado de México.

[@josefranciscoreyessanchez9948]

ese hombre es mi padre... si algún día quieren conocer el pueblo, se llama "san jose buenavista el grande" temoaya estado de mexico tan solo hay que preguntar por francisco reyes.

[@alwaysbekindlove]

These are the most creative Pinatas I’ve ever seen. They need to sell these around the world and not only for bashing but also for creative decoration around the house.

[@exoinspiresmetobeabetterpe5649]

I want to make a piñata now. Anybody else? :)

[@naejin]

Wonder how many Trump Pinatas they made. I heard those were high in demand for a while.

[@mai0033]

Lmao 😅😅

[@evelinmichellespinosa]

Es súper divertido poder entender todo 😂

[@darckzsoul1586]

Siiiii hahahahaha

[@gojiwarrior2479]

This is why Fergy Fudgehog is scared to go to parties

[@b_uppy]

Those are really beautiful. Amazing work.

[@hanchockelias5123]

Man I miss having piñatas for my birthday, I feel old 😩😩

[@casper-z9rkls6gl]

It's great to see and know that some things are still hand-crafted, and not merely mass-produced in giant factories by huge machines and robots and computers.

[@elaloquilla]

Las piñatas son geniales por que puedes descargar toda tu furia en ellas 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁

[@jiminycricket9220]

Amazing, beautiful images. Bravo!

[@gumbowumbo6784]

What’s sad is that all these beautiful piñatas get destroyed

[@dreamliner9640]

I like mexico travel

[@angelcatsugarbaby]

these are the best pinatas i ever seen

[@magicgameplay6786]

Me encanta el color sepia en el ambiente muy natural sigue así National geographic 😂

[@darckzsoul1586]

Sure, poor, where is your piñata? Or you only know how to eat los blancos hahaha

[@MechaniFUN]

[@pickupthatcan9696]

That's a bad name and a bad choice.

[@darckzsoul1586]

In my town there is a lady who makes almost unbreakable piñatas and it's super fun, apart from the fact that you vent hahaha

[@glengodden9659]

translation would be nice. beautiful art that I enjoy watching how they are made. bravo!!

[@kiwilala2037]

Glen Godden it has subtitles.

[@markromero5331]

So Awesome to know now, that others truly respect the very "Art" that they are. It would be unheard of to smash your hero ! Being from East Los Angeles, I've seen my fair share of pinata's but Francisco's family ones are exquisite ! And should all be in a museum !

[@mv3240]

Dora’s exploring just came to an end.

[@WalidKhamisi]

Awesome ideas

[@MrCjosue24]

It's a good thing I never forgot my mexican spanish. Hell it's my first language that I've spoken and my parents never taught me, but when I entered school I was taught English though I don't remember how I started to speak it.

[@thornuhh]

Greetings and Happy Friday! 👋👽 I bring coffee ☕ to get your morning started. Have a great weekend. 😉 By the way those are some great looking pinatas. 👍

[@lazarobustos3403]

don't they need the rights to use these characters in order to profit from them lol

[@crazystuffproduction]

ITS MEXICO, so no lol

[@GandalfTheTsaagan]

I mean, they're selling these in their town and its surroundings, I don't think that they are making millions out of them Also, I'm sure that at least some of these characters already fall into public domain

[@joon-young9589]

No

[@MrCjosue24]

Nope

[@artfx9]

That's fucked up.

[@yonatanmakara6856]

Awww there so fun to smash and candy comes out.

Apologies, its hard to tell a joke from a statement over the internet haha have a good day :)

They spend all their time building pinatas when they could be fixing theor homes and making their lives better...

[@laprietayelguero]

Who said their homes need fixin' or that their lives aren't any good? Just because you I don't see how they live Beautiful...doesn't mean it isn't beautiful to them. What you see as "good" thru you perception of life doesn't mean that's the only way to live. They are simple people.
