Event
"En El Hoyo" (In the Pit)
En El Hoyo (In the Pit)
Dir. Juan Carlos Rulfo, 2006, 84 min.
-- In Spanish, with English subtitles --
A Mexican legend recounted that for every bridge built the devil would ask for one soul, so that the bridge never falls. This film tells the story of the workers who are participating in the construction of a second deck to Mexicos City inner Perifrico freeway. This second deck is about to transform the city, its landscape and the lives of its inhabitants. It is the story of those whose hands and sweat go into the making of this mammoth work of concrete, steel and asphalt. The workers daily lives, their hopes, their emotions and small moments that will culminate in the loss of a soul taken by the devil, a soul that will remain as a memory of the workers who build the second deck.
Part of the "Straight Outta Mexico" series curated by Santiago Esteinou February 9th -14th at the Maysles Cinema
