In the indigenous farming economy of the Huasteca region of San Luis Potosí and Veracruz, the Tarasco plateau, and the Mazateca region, corn is the main crop. The documentary describes its origin, meaning, forms to grow, rituals, paths, and circuits of distribution. Here are exposed the family and community relations generated from the production of this seed, whether for self-consumption or for its external commercialization, in face of the capitalist model that national society practices.
