A Little Mexican Village
A Little Mexican Village explores the simple and uneventful lives of a few older residents in a small, rural village: El Encino de La Paz, in Durango, Mexico (pictured above). While tiny and impoverished, this villages exemplifies the resilience of a very hardworking people, of which very few remain. Their experiences are not unique by any means: thousands of villages across rural Mexico just like El Encino embody a similar culture, economy and lifestyle of rustic simplicity. Other El Encino's across Mexico are all likely to meet the same fate and disappear in coming decades; given that nearly all young residents of such villages will migrate to urban areas or immigrate abroad. It is precisely for this reason that the story of such a place must be told: before its few remaining residents, and the village itself, are gone.
