Todo sobre mi mate

Uruguay · 2011
52m
Director Nelson Scartaccini
Starring
Genre Documentary

About those who created the habit of drinking mate, of the peasants who harvest the mate herbs, of the industry that produces it and of the sixty million people who consume it. It is a trip through history, the present and the future of mate in Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay and Argentina; a view that sways from mate to the hands that put it into circulation; a crossing between the intangible-symbolic and the political-social. How does a centuries-old indigenous tradition survive in a modern and coca-cola dominated world?

We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.
