Brigade that slays dragons (evils and problems)
using light and sound waves as weapons.
Nomen est omen (latín para nombre es destino), Miguel y Jorge son siempre representados en
western Christian iconography fighting
a dragon, hence their joint mission.
Thank you.

セノーテ
Cenote
Cenote
2019, Mexico | Japan, 75 min, Maya / Spanish / English
In Northern Yucatan, Mexico, natural sinkholes called cenotes constituted the sole water source for Mayans not living near a river or lake. Some cenotes were used for ritual sacrifices, and the Mayans believed that these holy springs connected this world to the afterlife. The past and present of those living around the cenotes coalesce in this mysterious place. Long-lost memories echo in hallucinatory turquoise underwater footage, an entrancing game of light and dark. Swimming in these sinkholes, director Oda Kaori encounters intriguing shapes and beams of light, the water heaves, drops fall like razor blades.
