Los Matachines are ritual dance dramas performed in Hispano, Pueblo and Genizaro (mixed Spanish and Native) communities throughout New Mexico. This film by Lucia Duncan was produced for the Museum of International Folk Art's "Musica Buena" exhibit in Santa Fe, New Mexico which runs through 2021. The film features footage from a historic Matachine performance in Bernalillo, along with modern day versions performed in Corrales and Picuris Pueblo, and at the San Antonio de Padua Mission. Commentary by noted Folklorist Enrique Lamadrid. If you would like to support our work recording disappearing traditional culture, please donate at: thewisdomarchiv...
