| Summary |
Richly atmospheric and steeped in Mayan folklore, director Jayro Bustamante's film seems at first to have emerged from another age, though the setting turns out to be contemporary. The drama centres on the choices facing María, a 17-year-old Kaqchikel Maya who works with her parents on a coffee plantation in the shadow of the eponymous volcano. She is set to be married to the farm's foreman, a loveless match that will at least protect the livelihood of her parents. But María is secretly working on other plans that will take her away from traditional life - and towards a startling contradiction of the natural order as she understands it |
