After living in Mexico City for 40 years, Antonia longs to escape the pressure and turmoil of this megalopolis and return to her hometown, a Mazahua village in the state of Mexico. Miles of parched, dusty landscape roll by outside a car window as Antonia returns home to her native village from a life of toil in Mexico City. When she arrives, she finds that things are not as idyllic as she remembered. Confronted with the harsh present-day reality of water scarcity, resulting in dry riverbeds and sick relatives, she wanders through the fields, recalling childhood memories and reflecting upon changes in the village. Enhanced by strong visuals and haunting music, this meditative documentary focuses on the contrast between the urban and the agrarian.
