Defenders of Life (2019)
A beautiful glimpse into an indigenous culture and a young woman's coming of age.

In this film Defenders of Life, you will be treated to lush landscapes and be immersed into the old ways & customs of an indigenous culture of Costa Rica. In many ways, it is an intriguing tale of motherhood, womanhood & cultural traditions which tend to clash with the modern world and society today. Stark cultural differences and certain injustices will compel any viewer into a sense of empathy for certain characters as they navigate this journey. I also enjoyed the use of earthly elemental symbolism and mystical interludes within the scenes. Well done!
