DESCRIPTION:Dir. Natalia Almada. 2011\, 72 min. DCP. In Spanish with Englis
 h subtitles. At dusk a man drives his truck to a cemetery where the sun’s 
 golden light casts an eerie glow on a vast collection of extravagant mauso
 leums. These are the tombs where some of Mexico’s notorious drug lords hav
 e been laid to rest. It’s not uncommon for shoot-outs to erupt between vis
 itors overnight\, and the driver is the watchman of this space. Through th
 e confines of the cemetery\, director Natalia Almada reflects on a communi
 ty besieged by violence at the hands of the cartel. The camera quietly obs
 erves people who come to care for the gravesites\, mopping tile floors whi
 le young children play at their feet\, and workers who erect new tombs at 
 an alarming pace. The volume of new construction emphasizes the profound l
 oss of life. Throughout the film\, shocking accounts of violence are overh
 eard on radio and television reports that play in the background of these 
 daily scenes. El Velador illuminates the burden of harrowing violence by e
 xploring this place where people exist in its wake. \n\n	Tickets: $15 ($11
  seniors and students / $9 youth (ages 3–17) / free for children under 3 a
