Still a bit overwhelmed by the splendid success their debut documentary achieved with its Sundance premiere, Rebecca Zweig and Efraín Mojica already have graced over a dozen film festivals with their intimate look at gay Mexican cowboys at the titular traditional rodeo event. Equally gentle and daring, Jaripeo explores the multilayered tension - social, sensual, and symbolic - evoked by the performances of masculinity as well a their collision with queer identity and desire. During their most recent festival stop at Visions du Réel, the director duo spoke with Lidanoir about finding their glamorous characters, shooting in Efraín's hometown, and the vibrant queer community at a place shaped by tradition and religion.
