MALINTZIN 17

Malintzin 17 portrays two parallel expressions of parental care. For seven days, filmmaker Eugenio Polgovsky and his five-year-old daughter Milena watch a pigeon caring for her chick in a dangerous tangle of electrical wires. The film constructs a microscopic but powerful environmental critique of the imprisonment of nature within the aggressive infrastructures of modernity.
