About Heart of Sky, Heart of Earth

Heart of Sky follows six young Maya in Guatemala and Mexico through their daily and ceremonial life, revealing their determination to resist the destruction of their culture and environment.

As corporations go to the ends of the earth to extract all value, and resources, the protagonists put forth a wholly indigenous perspective in their own words. Each story touches upon a facet of the current global crisis.

Beautifully filmed over years, the intimate accounts of these modern Maya interweave with images associated with the fragile beauty of nature and the creation myth of the Popol Vuh. Their cosmovision, in which all life is sacred and interconnected, presents a deeply compelling alternative to the prevailing worldview.
