About

Seen through the eyes of small, midsize and large Mexican maize producers, SUNÚ knits together different stories from a threatened rural world. This film documents how people realize their determination to stay free, to work the land and cultivate their seeds, to be true to their cultures and forms of spirituality, all in a modern world where corn is being threatened at the center of its origin: Mexico.

Reviews

"Sunú serves as both a celebration of our essential relationship with the Earth and a warning that we have ceded food production to corporations. The personal relationship between the people and their homegrown food source is clear and powerful. Recommend"
