Its region has become depopulated due to emigration and climate change, making agriculture an unreliable livelihood. Their cultural heritage and language, Mixtec, have been fading away with each generation, fueled by the discrimination against indigenous culture in Mexico. Remaining in their village and persisting in their trade is a choice between the harshness of the country versus the city comforts. Their culture and their futures are at stake in each piece of clay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Director&#8217;s Biography- <\/strong>Assadourian Mart\u00ednez<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-layzr=\"https:\/\/imefilmfest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Jose-Assadourian-Martinez.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3348\" style=\"width:271px;height:auto\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Jos\u00e9 Assadourian is a film director and music composer born in Cuernavaca, Mexico.
