A woman travels to Mexico with her newborn baby to take part in an ancient forest ritual with members of her family. Faride Schroeder’s tenth short is both a moody journey into folk magic and an exploration of the connections of female lineage, supercharged with a gripping lead performance by Oscar-nominee Yalitza Aparicio (ROMA) at its centre. – Mitch Davis
