Screening of the film “Daughters of the Forest”

Deep in the Mexican forests, two indigenous mycologists try to reconcile the past with the present while reimagining the future for themselves and the changing world in which they live. Daughters of the Forest is a story about the connections: between humans and fungi; the visible and the invisible; knowledge passed down from generation to generation and modern science. This gripping science fiction documentary takes us on an unexpected, sometimes speculative journey as we reconsider the perceptions and experiences of both human and nonhuman inhabitants of our world.
