Six people travel to Mexico to meet a shaman and take part in an ancient ritual. They eat
hallucinogenic mushrooms with the intention of alleviating their physical and psychological
ailments.
Little Saints is a documentary following six men and women from the United States who,
along with Director Oliver Quintanilla, travel to Mexico to meet an extraordinary woman and
take part of an ancient ritual of psychological and physical healing. The ingestion of psilocybe
mushrooms in the southern Mexico is an ancient, candlelit ritual. The lack of external stimuli
creates a space that is conducive to looking inside oneself. While guided by Mazatec shaman
Natalia, the patients examine their issues and find answers within themselves; thru prayer and
energy cleansings, the shaman purifies their spirits.
Along with their story, the film includes interviews with scientists and researchers who share
their knowledge of psychedelic medicines, Mazatec traditions, and current efforts to bring this
medicine to the world community.
