Douglas J. Weatherford is co-director of BYU’s International Cinema and Professor of Hispanic Literatures and Film in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese. Weatherford’s research often focuses on the intersection of literature and film, and he worked with Juan Carlos Rulfo as a content specialist and on-screen character in a documentary series that celebrates the life and work of the director’s famous father, Juan Rulfo. Juan Carlos Rulfo (Mexico, 1964-) has won numerous national and international awards and is considered one of Mexico’s most important documentary filmmakers. This presentation will discuss recent efforts in Latin America to celebrate Indigenous voices, but will focus on Juan Carlos’s documentary short, Lorena, Light-Footed Woman (Mexico, Spanish/Rarámuri, 2019, 28 min.), a film that explores the efforts of a young Tarahumara/Rarámuri ultra-distance runner from the mountains of northern Mexico.

NOTE: Through the generosity of the director, Lorena, Light-footed Woman will be shown immediately following this presentation (in 250 KMBL). However, due to distribution limitations, International Cinema will only screen this film once.

Lorena has been crushing her competition in ultra-marathons, all while wearing sandals. This documentary short shows her life as a Tarahumara, an indigenous people of northern Mexico renowned for their long-distance running abilities. (Documentary)
