Watching: I Remember

Overview

This documentary weaves together two stories of disappearance: that of Atzin Molina, my high school friend who vanished in 2019, and that of Atzin, the Totonac rain deity, believed lost or dead amid the oil-driven devastation of Veracruz, Mexico. Through these two figures who share a name—one human, the other divine—the film traces a landscape of absence, where grief, ecological violence, and spiritual erosion become inseparable.
