Agave is Life is the story of mankind’s symbiotic alliance with the marvelous agave plant from which tequila, Mexico’s iconic distilled spirit, is derived. Told through the lens of archaeological and historical investigations, this colorful film with both original and traditional folk music relies upon ethnographic materials, archival footage, and interviews to explore 10,000 years of the human-agave relationship. A Q&A session with the film’s producer, Meredith Dreiss and director David Brown, PhD, will take place immediately following each showing of the film.
