A recasting of the mythical dismemberment of the Aztec Moon goddess, Coyolxauhqui, by her brother Huitzilopochtli, the deity of war, Sun and human sacrifice. The film is a poem of perception, one that unveils how contemporary Mexican femicide is linked to a patriarchal history with roots in deeper cultural constructs.
