This journey takes us to the world’s most bio-diverse landscape of the agave plant, Mexico; here families have been passing down the tradition of distilling agave for generations, even at times clandestinely. The film examines how one delicate plant can carry the weight of a nation and the people trying to protect it for the future. “*With strikingly beautiful cinematography, the film celebrates the hard labor that goes into each margarita.*” — Austin Chronicle "*A deeper investigation..… on the families that have worked with agave for generations*." — The Hollywood Reporter *Tickets are $25; the price includes the tasting/pairing event.
