Il día de muertos in Messico non è una celebrazione della morte ma della vita

In Mexico, death is not mourned. It’s sung, painted, dressed in flowers, and seated at the table with the living. From the decorated streets of Oaxaca to the candlelit cemeteries of Pátzcuaro, this docu-journey takes us into the heart of Día de los Muertos — the Mexican celebration where the living prepare to welcome the dead. Through the voices of artisans, farmers, and keepers of indigenous traditions, Emanuela D’Ambrosi leads us to discover a Mexico where death is not a taboo, but an inseparable part of life — a public, shared, intimate, and powerful event. Among home altars, ritual dances, sugar-skull markets, and parades of elegantly dressed skeletons, we ask ourselves: what does it truly mean to make peace with death? From the syncretism between pre-Columbian rites and Catholicism to the identity rediscovery of the twentieth century, we explore the deeper meaning of one of the world’s most captivating celebrations. A journey that challenges our relationship with death and reminds us that no one truly dies as long as they are remembered. --- 🌍 Did you know you can experience this journey yourself?
