The documentary reveals how this community, known for its strict policy of isolation, is challenged to open itself up due to pressures from the outside world. The Mennonites, who arrived in Mexico in 1922, transformed the dry land into farmland. Today, 30,000 Mennonites live in Chihuahua where the same land has little to offer for the youth. Gaining impressive access to individuals and their every day life, LAND OF MENNONITES leads us into a community that is challenged by voices of change and dissidence.
