The film LAND WATER PEOPLE TIME, is a collection of the nearly disappeared stories from Northern New Mexico's diverse cultures, traditions and heritage. People of the northern geography of New Mexico are shaped by historical relationships to natural environments, by neighboring cultures and sustained by the waters of 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 the natural surroundings that shape and sustain the cultures celebrated in Northern New Mexico.
