Floating with Spirits

Director: Juanita Onzaga
In this magical virtual reality experience, two sisters prepare for the Day of the Dead in the mystical mountains of Mexico and transport you into the secret world of their ancestors.

In the cinematic VR documentary, we follow the two young Mazatec sisters in the misty mountains of Oaxaca, Mexico. Their village lies amid giant Ceiba trees and turbulent rivers. Nature breathes and holds the memories of this community. Behind every mountain lurks a sea of knowledge. The girls' imagination transports the participant to the mystical ancestral world. A shamanic dance ritual opens a portal through which we can discover the secret worlds of four nature spirits.
