La Recua - new Baja film out soon


From Trudi Angell - who shouldn't need an introduction if you have spent any time in BCS.

La Recua
Recua [rék•wah] - a caravan; from arabic - something that follows one another.

Here's the trailer, I think the film is soon to be released.

"This is a quick note to let you know that our film, La Recua - The Mule Pack Train, is about to hit the big screen...and a whole lot of smaller ones. In the next few days I'll send you details about our World Premiere (live and online streaming) coming up, in Santa Barbara - Alta California!"





Do you know, or can you ask Trudi when the film will be available for online streaming for those of us residing in Baja?

Thanks!

Here's the latest from Trudi:

How to watch La Recua – on-line or live:

Baja California Sur’s own Docu-Story has traveled north, up El Camino Real, to Santa Barbara in Alta California. View and Vote at its World Premiere festival, Apr. 1-10, 2021.

Buy Ticket ($10) for La Recua Here: https://givebox.com/521001
You buy your ticket now to watch during the festival - April 1st to 10th, 2021. If you are in Mexico, see FAQs below**

La Recua [rék•wah] – The Mule Pack Train will be available for Streaming Online, and on the Big Screen at a local drive-in theater in Santa Barbara – at the 36th Annual Santa Barbara International Film Festival (www.SBIFF.org)

In 2018, three generations travel 20 days by mule on old El Camino Real trails, packing traditional trade goods on donkeys, meeting old friends along the 200 mile route, and sharing stories: an amazing glimpse into the past and Baja California Sur’s cultural treasures.

Our two youngest riders, Azucena age 10, and Ramoncito age 8, are sure to capture hearts as they share their own stories and learn the ropes along the trail.

Produced by Trudi Angell and co-directed by Darío Higuera Meza (of Corazón Vaquero fame). We take you on a gorgeous trail ride down the peninsula to learn about the history of pre-highway travel in the Original California … on the back of a mule!

A beautiful film for the whole family.

Praise for La Recua:
• La Recua is superb! … it tells a complete story of a man, his family, his society, and his culture through the journey of the recua. Paul Ganster dir. Institute for Regional Studies of the Californias
• It is a true tribute to the region, it's people, their culture and traditions! Xavier Breña, Mex.
• I was so impressed with the intimacy and beauty of the experience - the characters, landscape and history of the Recua. Shaw Salzburg, Loreto, BCS
• Great story, great filming, great music. Such a vision, so lovingly portrayed. Barb Ware, Ukiah, CA
• The cinematography, the editing, the way it flows like El Camino Real, and most of all, the essence of it, which is The Heart. Tracy Durlan, Todos Santos, BCS

FAQs About the Festival and the Film:

• Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/LaRecuaMovie

• Twitter and Instagram - @larecuamovie

• In Spanish with English subtitles.

• If you are in the southern CA area, see the sbiff.org web site for a Drive-in screening of La Recua (mid day on April 1st) – and read all of their FAQs here: https://sbiff.org/film-festival/faqs/

• The film is available online April 1-10 in the US & Canada**. It has been Geo-Blocked (unable to be viewed) to exclude Mexico**. The reason for that is some other festivals to which we have applied or have yet to apply require that a film be premiered in their region. It will still be a number of months before we can sell it to the public, so enjoy at festivals now, vote for us if you love it, and then buy later!

**If you are in Mexico and chompin’ at the bit to watch the film… please contact Trudi for more information at tourloreto@aol.com

• How to Vote for La Recua: Following your viewing of the film, every ticket holder (or passholder) can vote, one time, online, for the film on the film’s landing page.

Muchas Gracias Todos! Trudi Angell
