Winner of the Best Documentary Award at the Berlin, Chicago and Morelia film festivals, the most recent work by Mexican-Salvadoran Tatiana Huezo (Prayers for the Stolen) is an epic, intimate, and lyrical portrayal of life set in a small rural mountain village.

Ganador del Premio al Mejor Documental en los festivales de cine de Berlín, Chicago y Morelia, el trabajo más reciente de la mexicano-salvadoreña Tatiana Huezo (Noche de fuego) es un retrato épico, íntimo y lírico de la vida ambientada en un pequeño pueblo rural de montaña. Los adolescentes cuidan de sus adultos mayores y de sus ovejas, a la vez que las heladas y la sequía castigan la tierra, ellos aprenden a comprender la muerte, la enfermedad y el amor con cada acto.
