The Invention Of The Sea
Overview
This documentary tells three stories of exclusion from leisure in Mexico: a family’s visit to Plaza Tlaxcoaque during Holy Week, residents of Puerto Aventuras restricted from the beaches, and the impact of violence on the free time of Ciudad Juárez inhabitants. Each story explores how social, economic, and political forces shape access to rest and recreation.
