In the remote Mexican village of El Eco, life is rich in privation, work and children. Here, granddaughters movingly take care of grandmothers until they die.

The Echo

Synopsis

In the remote village of El Echo that exists outside of time, the children care for the sheep and their elders. While the frost and drought punish the land, they learn to understand death, illness and love with each act, word and silence of their parents. A story about the echo of what clings to the soul, about the certainty of shelter provided by those around us, about rebellion and vertigo in the face of life. About growing up.
