SILVESTRE PANTALEON

DIR. ROBERTO OLIVARES (MEXICO 2012, 65MIN, HD)

 

Silvestre Pantaleón es la historia de la lucha cotidiana de un anciano del pueblo Nahua de San Agustín Oapan, Guerrero, por conseguir el dinero necesario para que le hagan una ceremonia de curación: “Levantamiento de sombra”. Para conseguirlo, Don Silvestre hace lo único que sabe hacer y que quizá sólo él hace hoy en día: producir objetos tanto de uso cotidiano como religioso con la fibra de maguey y la palma.

 

The story of an elderly man from the Nahuatl-speaking village of San Agustin Oapan, Guerrero, Mexico. Silvestre Pantaleon follows the protagonist as he struggles to pay for a curing ceremony and provide for his family. He dedicates himself to the only remunerative activities he knows: handcrafting rope for religious ceremonies and building seldom-used household objects that he alone still has the skills to produce. Silvestre Pantaleon is a simple though universal tale of aging, told with a lyrical combination of lingering imagery and quotidian´s life detail.
