The Mexican-Salvadoran Tatiana Huezo has made both documentaries (Tempestad from 2016) and fiction - 'Prayers for the Stolen' from 2021. Her latest documentary 'The Echo' won the 2023 Berlin Film Festival award for best documentary and for her Best Director in the Encounters section. In 'El Eco', a remote village in northern Mexico, life consists of the most elementary, basic things. Being the child or teen of labouring farmers here is an intense experience from day one, involving nature, animals and people. But also love, intimacy, illness and death. And education - at least for the younger generation.
