Later Down the Road

In the Sierra Tarahumara, the relationship between an American pianist and his Rarámuri godson, also a musician, transforms as personal aspirations and social tensions emerge. In a little while later is an intimate observation of how an encounter can change a destiny—though not prevent distance. See More

Until a Later Time

This is the story of two pianists: Romayne and Romeyno. Romayne, an American musician, left the comforts of Europe over 30 years ago to learn about the Rarámuri worldview in the Sierra Tarahumara. Romeyno, his Rarámuri godson, is a young pianist striving to make his way in Mexico’s classical music scene. A journey in opposite directions, where both musicians seek their own identity.

Apart

The story of a family marked by tragedy gives rise to a reflection on memory, emotional ties, family secrets and the difficulty for new generations of knowing and accepting life events.
