EL CAMINO DEL TIEMPO

For the indigenous people in the Ecuadorean Andes, drinking has a very special meaning. It helps overcoming conflicts among people, and it enables the communication with the world of the spirits. In particular for the old people, drinking is like a river flowing slowly into the world of the dead. Through the moving story of Taita José Maria, ‘El Camino de Tiempo’ (‘The Path of Time’) evokes the spiritual meaning of drinking.
