Chinantla Tortilla Factory

Tortillas moving to the rhythm of a waltz, an effect emphasizing the high-tech mode of tortilla production in Brooklyn, NY. This geographic juncture converts the border zone into a floating territory. A photographic and montage experiment which emphasizes the machine condition over human labor in an assembly line environment. A metaphor of the possible symbolic recolonization of the North as a consequence of migration. (Morelia International Film Festival)
