A journey Inside,
an Astrological Cosmic Dance beyond the End of the Maya Calendar.
Follow Branly, Guatamalan timekeeper, 21st century Mayan, on his cosmic quest for meaning and reaffirmation of his Mayan spirituality through the echoes of an ancient civilization in the Vedic South of India.

Short Synopsis
Experience a space time travel through past, present and future through the eyes of Guatemalan timekeeper Branly Gio Lopez, along rituals for the Planets of our Solar System still alive in the Dravidian Temples in the Vedic South of India. Ever since the ‘End of the Mayan calendar’ Branly has researched techniques and the meaning of Mayan Cosmology, trying to recover ancient rituals and knowledge painfully devastated by 500 years of colonization. During his vision quest he slowly recognizes deep roots in the echos of an old civilisation. Meanwhile the volcano erupts, the temple elephant dies and the turtle breathes home.
