Product Description
English and Spanish versions on one all-region DVD!Director and editor commentary!Five hundred years after the European conquest of Mexico, the institution of the curandero, or healer, continues to survive among the indigenous Maya of the Yucatan peninsula. In fact, many indigenous Mexicans have immigrated to the United States and brought their beliefs about health care with them.The curanderos are older, respected members of Mayan society, experienced herbalists, psychologist, and community leaders. They have integrated many features of Western society into their world: Christianity is an integral part of their practice, and many of them accept a role for Western medicine. Their world is vibrant, ancient, wise, and colorful, but fast disappearing.Four years in the making, "Healers of the Maya" is a documentary that takes the audience inside a community that most of the Western world believes to have vanished a millennium ago. Featuring beautifully shot footage of healing ceremonies, and interviews with the healers and their patients in the Mayan language, "Healers of the Maya" is a compelling, unique film.This film is about their miraculous, but tenuous survival, and the lessons they still have to teach us.*********************500 anos despues de la conquista Europea de Mexico, la institucion del Curandero aun continua vigente dentro de los indigenas Maya de la peninsula de Yucatan.
