Description: In the feature-length, documentary film Jats’uts Meyah, Bacila Tzek Uc, the last midwife of a remote Maya community, shares ancestral knowledge of plant-based medicine and natural birth at the end of her life. In the Maya world, work is the most important cultural value, but a lack of paid jobs forces men to immigrate for work, while women stay in the pueblo and carefully tend the Maya way of life. Led by the midwife, the women believe that when she dies, they’ll all die right behind her.nn_
