Una idea nos acercó al instante. Philip Melnick obtuvo una maestría en medios de comunicación, y es un candidato para una maestría en escritura de guiones de teoría y práctica. Estudiamos el cine internacional. Aquí hemos forjado un vínculo con una familia increíble de curanderos que confiaron en nosotros para estar en su casa, aunque no tienen experiencia con personas no de Y

ucatán y cambió para siempre nuestras vidas para mejor. ¿Por qué no pedir a esta familia si les gustaría compartir sus conocimientos ancestrales en un documental para que la gente sabe lo que es posible en este mundo, y por la venta de nuestra película ganaremos el dinero necesario para iniciar "La Brigada de Los niños," una organización para comprar uniformes escolares y proporcionar dinero para el almuerzo a los niños necesitados, a cambio de la participación del niño una vez al mes limpiando la basura alrededor de su pueblo. Don Antonio dijo que sí, y rápidamente comenzamos a trabajar. An idea came over us instantly. Philip Melnick earned a Master’s Degree in Media, and he’s a candidate for a Master’s Degree in Screenwriting Theory and Practice. We study international cinema. Here we have forged a bond with an amazing family of healers who trusted us to be in their home, even though they have no experience with people not from Yucatan, and changed our lives for the better forevermore. Why not ask this family if they would like to share their ancestral knowledge in a documentary film so that people know what is possible in this world, and by selling our film we will earn the money needed to begin “La Brigada de Los Ninos,” an organization to purchase school uniforms and provide lunch money to children in need, in exchange for that child’s participation once a month cleaning up garbage around their pueblo. Don Antonio said yes, and we quickly began working.
