Exquisite documentary on a little-known history of the Land of Enchantment
I saw Breath of Life on KNME, the PBS affiliate in New Mexico, and immediately knew I had to have a copy to watch again and again. I was completely taken by the mood and method of this sensitive, thoughtful, artistic interpretation of the poignant and tragic history of the Salinas Pueblos. It was obvious an enormous amount of research went into the production of this history of a little-known corner of New Mexico, the prehistoric pueblos of the Salinas Valley and the coming of the friars and governors of the Spanish Colonial Era. Breath of Life sensitively and intelligently captures the cultural clash that resulted and shows that, as Faulkner said, the past is not dead -- it isn't even past.
