@isabelazawistowska: Mother Nature (Earth) is life. It nourishes us in so many ways. Despite her constant giving, we continue to take. In the case of Lake Xochimilco, we’ve taken in the form of constant urbanization and pollution. The end result? Lake Xochimilco is facing a serious threat of disappearing. That is if we don’t make a change. Doña Susana - our main subject of our film ‘Companion of the Setting Sun’ - believes that there is hope. As a respected elder in the Xochimilca community, she is passionate about sharing her traditional wisdom around caring for Xochimilco and all of its inhabitants, including the critically endangered Axolotl. — We are currently in production and raising additional funds to return to Mexico to film more before kicking off post-production. Consider supporting this story to see it come alive!
