The sacrifice is nigh.

The Nemontemi ceremony approaches as Mētzili counts down the days, hours and minutes to her imminent death. A strange voice grows stronger, calling for her to escape into the wild and embark on a perilous journey across the treacherous jungle of Lakam Tum.

Tecuani is an immersive sensory experience providing an intriguing, powerful and stimulating synergy of movement, voice, spatial design, mask and virtual technologies. The work brings to the forefront a story of reclamation looking at the past to re-imagine the future. Drawing from Nahuatl (Mexican indigenous) poetry and exploring ways to translate these poems through a contemporary lens.

Tecuani is a response to the chronicle: "No queremos ser cristianos" by Jan de Vos - it aims explore themes of community, corruption, self-discovery, indigineity, and latin-futurism as vehicles for re-imagining a future where indigenous languages are dominant. Emilio hopes to bring the brutalist nature of his culture to Aotearoa with a surrealist performance that reminds us of the absurdity of life.

Tecuani will be Emilio's debut as a director and writer and producer of a full-length work.
