In this film festival favourite, every day is magical in the tiny
logging town of San Miguel de Cruces, Mexico, thanks to director
Juan Antonio de la Riva, who captures the rhythms of small-town
life through the stories of its inhabitants. From a young couple
facing separation as the husband prepares to seek work in the
United States to a pair of teens on the cusp of adulthood to the local
movie theatre operator struggling to stay open after the introduction
of satellite dishes, Pueblo de madera portrays a town—and a
people—in transition.
