Coyolxauhqui
N/A

Coyolxauhqui is a searing evocation of femicide in rural Mexico. It recasts the dismemberment of the Aztec moon goddess Coyolxauhqui by her brother Huitzilopochtli, sun, human sacrifice and war god. A visual poem about the cyclical nature of traditional myths and rituals, Coyolxauhqui is part of a trilogy that proposes itself as an act of political resistance, exploring the connection of current Mexican femicides to larger cultural formations.

During a press conference, Governor Javier Duarte de Ochoa announces an ominous “soliloquy” where he makes a sinister warning to journalists and the media of the State of Veracruz. Using the formal dimension of dubbing, as well as its associative, evocative, resonant and translating possibilities, this work explores through film the words of the ruler, establishing an asynchronous link and a time lag that puts on stage the grotesque expressionism of a governmental discursive delirium.

A cinema shot. The relationship that a shoot-out has with the image becomes somewhat different; the celluloid no longer supports, at 24 frames per second, the representation of a shooting, either acted or documented, but the celluloid has now become the direct carrier, the affected, in the shot in each frame.
