Land Water People Time

The Film

As filmmakers and producers of the film LAND WATER PEOPLE TIME

-we are able to access the ordinary, hard working people who live the experience of cultural and environmental loss and preservation in Northern New Mexico.  Below are images some of the people and places that give meaning to those 10 thousand square miles we travel across in our film.

People of the northern geography of New Mexico -shape and are shaped by – the natural, historical and political relationships to environments,  they are sustained by the waters and lands of northern New Mexico and influenced by the neighboring cultures that make up present day Northern New Mexico.

Descendants of Native Americans, New Mexican Spanish and generations of Anglo settlers-whose histories involve the strife of tribal, international and civil wars; periods of famine and abundance, intercultural raiding and peaceful effort -share knowledge and wisdom brought on by deeper understandings of these natural surroundings that shape and sustain the living heritage and cultures celebrated in Northern New Mexico.
