Pamparios
In his improvised feature PAMPARIOS director Florian Seufert creates a fictitious version of himself. His Alter Ego uses an actual family party in the German countryisde for a silent farewell. He wants to build a new life in the high mountains of Jalisco, México living with the indigenous Huicholes. Here, they use the blood of animals to ask for a fertile land. At night Shamans connect with the hidden realms of ghosts and their ancestors. The circle of life and death is a natural part of daily life and Florian becomes more and more estranged from his old self. Can there be change beyond the sense of self realization, beyond his own roots? A tale from the animal world hints at the chance for a real transformation.
