Tras Nazarin: Following Nazarin

About This Movie

Tras Nazarin: Following Nazarin is this deep dig into the echoes of Buñuel's 'Nazarin', a film that breathes the essence of priesthood and idealism. The documentary reflects on the notion of a Quixote-like figure amidst the backdrop of Mexico's social fabric, drawing you into a world where faith and folly intersect. The pacing feels contemplative, almost meditative, allowing the viewer to ponder alongside those who are interviewed. There's a rawness in the visuals that captures the stark beauty of the location, contrasted with the complexity of the themes explored. It’s as if you’re peeling back layers of not just the film itself, but also its impact and the creative spirit that surrounded it.
