Synopsis
Doña Julietas mother Regina was said to be the coriander (traditional native doctor) who taught the legendary Maria Sabina of Huatla de Jiménez, Oaxaca, Mexico. Deeper into the mountains far from the the village of Huatla, lived Doña Julietas family. It is into this hidden Mazatec world Camila Martinez is adopted. She shares stories of her traveling in and out of this magical realm over twenty years as an adventurous young woman studying ethnobotany and developing her apprenticeship with the heiress and daughter of Maria Sabinas initiatrix, Dona Julieta and land of the female village curanderos, their sacred mushroom tradition becoming known, shifting into the future and greater global culture.
Camila is a conduit of the knowledge and spirit of this traditional native medicine and bridges realms as the trail requires. As the only American female apprentice of Dona Julieta, she is uniquely able to give us a special view. Come meet an extraordinary woman as we are welcomed to sit by her kitchen fire. Be amazed and delighted.
