En Tierra de Vaqueros (Cowboys Land)
Oliver Rendón
Mexico, 2011, 32 min.
In Spanish with English subtitles.
Some wear Stetson hats, jeans, and plaid or long-sleeved shirts. Although they fit the image of the macho cowboy, the rugged appearance of these gays and lesbians of Sonora, Mexico does not tell the whole story of their lives. Intolerant, conservative Catholic values and traditional family bonds provide a complicated and changing dynamic.
Category: Documentary.
Themes: Community, Identity, Lifestyle, Sexuality, Sports, World Cinema, Latin America, Mexican Culture.
