Mexico's Purepecha Women

Come see Guadalupe Hernández Dimas (Nana Lu) and Herlinda Morales Jerónimo, two Purépechas from Michoacán Mexico, view a trailer of the upcoming featured-length documentary Tierra Brillante (Brilliant Soil) about their way of life and view and purchase beautiful hand-made works, including traditional huanengos, embroidered linens, and pottery.

Guadalupe Hernández founded Uarhi (woman in purépecha), approximately 300 women from 23 communities that have come together to create a viable way to sustain their families. Herlinda Morales is part of Uarhi.
