A montage-style portrait of the orchids that bloom during Mexico's warm, dry spring, when flowers appear across some of the country's most seasonal habitats.
A feature-length documentary built around three scientific threads: the bioadhesives that make pollination possible, the mycorrhizal partnerships that sustain orchid life, and the floral deception that brings pollinators to the flower. The film follows these themes across Mexican orchid habitats in Veracruz and Oaxaca.
Enquiries from broadcasters, distributors and co-production partners are welcome — andresr@orchidarc.org.
