TIERRA MADRE (Mexico)

 

TIERRA MADRE is based on Aidee Gonzalez’s true life, a woman living on the Mexican border towns of Tecate and Tijuana, determined to raise her children with her female partner. This narrative feature makes the strong case of the strength, the independence and the solidarity that exits among women of all ages. In the tradition of the films of Satyajit Ray, De Sica and Luis Buñuel, TIERRA MADRE was shot with a cast of all non-actors.
