Thinking like a Mountain

About This Movie

Thinking like a Mountain is a documentary that immerses you in the spiritual life of the Arhuacos, the guardians of Colombia's Sierra Nevada Santa Marta. The tone is contemplative, almost reverential, as it weaves through their relationship with nature. Pacing is slow, allowing you to really soak in the visuals and the striking landscapes, which are almost characters in their own right. The cinematography captures the essence of the sacred mountain beautifully, creating a sense of place that's hard to shake off. What stands out is the authenticity of the Arhuaco's voices, drawing you into their worldview. It's not just a film about environmentalism; it's a meditation on existence, connection, and the importance of preserving sacred spaces.
