Immersive VR
FLOATING WITH SPIRITS
“Two little sisters prepare for the Day of the Dead in the mystic mountains of Mexico, remembering the stories their shaman granny used to tell.
A portal opens as the Mazatec community celebrates and we enter the interactive universe of their ancestors and the spirits of nature, each keeping a secret world to be unveiled.”
Floating with Spirits is an immersive VR experience by Colombian film director Juanita Onzaga, inspired by the wisdom and cosmogony of the Mazatec indigenous communities in Oaxaca, Mexico, and invites participants into the invisible worlds that exist around us.
