🎬 Un lugar más grande / A Bigger Place (2025) + Q&A

Nicolas Défossé | 2025 | México | 115' | EN subtitles

Chiapas, southeastern Mexico. When the people of Tila and neighboring villages run the town hall and police out of their territory, they face the challenge of exercising self-governance. Un lugar más grande (A Bigger Place) explores the day-to-day construction of autonomy, revealing a broad interweaving of people, generations, spirits and landscapes, as well as previously unseen images. It plunges us into the heart of a collective process, where self-governance becomes a responsibility towards oneself and others. A Zapatista-inspired adventure in Ch'ol Mayan territory.

The director will be present at the screening to talk with the audience and answer their questions after the credits finish rolling.
