Synopsis | Guided by ethnographic theory and supported by extensive fieldwork, Questa unveils how the maseual people of the Sierra Norte of Puebla, Mexico, elaborate with their bodies dances, ceremonies and divination discourses, resources to interpret the invisible relationships that maintain and give continuity to their lives and the world. In the face of continuous climatic disasters, the Maseual have recovered many of these actions that had fallen into disuse as laboratories where they can speculate and invest scales in order to manage and mitigate the disaster. |
