Meyolotl

After years living in the US, a filmmaker returns to her hometown to document the bond between her family and the maguey plant that has sustained them for generations. As she observes the deep-rooted bond built on mutual care, she questions her decision to leave, yet learns from the plant that her heart can root in new soil and still stay true to where it first beat.
