A modern and mythical celebration of the Divine Feminine, inspired by the Mexican myth of Xanat, the rebel princess who defied her father’s orders to be with her poet musician lover. Murdered together for eloping, their mingled blood creates the first vanilla orchid, and with it, the birth of a fully embodied woman who becomes conscious of herself. This Super 8 film joyfully celebrates femininity, presenting a sensual journey through different forms and experiences. XANAT is deep, tangible and radical. This is very much an embodied film, both in form and in process, and entirely hand-developed and hand-edited. The soundtrack is made by the filmmaker, her partner, and their children.
