Synopsis
A mystery, a horror story and a vital, comprehensively-researched epic, DARK SUNS chronicles the wave of femicides in northern Mexico that began in the second half of the twentieth century, and converged with the violence of the drug cartels beginning in the 1990s. This artfully-crafted, award-winning film points fingers at the forces at work behind the murders of thousands of innocent Mexican citizens.
Presented by the Austin Film Society, a nonprofit organization whose mission is to empower our community to make, watch, and love film and creative media.
Presented in Partnership with Cine Las Americas.
