MAXIMON The Drinking Smoking God | A Mysterious Guatemalan Journey (Documentary)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 сер 2024
- Maximon, Guatemala's drinking, smoking deity, is revered in Mayan culture as a figure of ancient knowledge. Located in Santiago on the coast of Lake Atitlan, Guatemala, this ancient figure serves the community and helps those in need.
Once a year, Maximon moves to a new house in a secretive ceremony. This year, we captured Maximon's journey all on camera. We interviewed several people in Santiago's Mayan community to find out more about Maximon's unique story.
Our latest documentary is shot on the Sony A7iv and DJI Mavic Air 2.

Interesting documentary, reminds me of El Tio, the Satanic Saint of the mines of Bolivia, to whom the miners give tobacco and alcohol in the hope that he won't cause them any mining-related deaths. Great job guys 👍
