    In a rich mosaic of festive and warmly intimate scenes, La Ofrenda takes a non-traditional look at the celebration of the Days of the Dead, evoking the familiar, ironic, sometimes humorous nature of Mexican and Mexican-American attitudes toward death. Moving from ancient Indian temples of a small Mexican village to San Francisco, the film explores the pre-Hispanic roots and fascinating modern variations of this colorful and delightfully macabre observance. Gently touching upon the enduring paradoxes of a tradition that celebrates living by cultivating an awareness of death, La Ofrenda captures the intensity and plenitude of the Mexican soul.
