Nahui Olin: Cosmic Vision is an experimental tribute to the iconic Mexican artist, poet, and feminist Nahui Olin (Carmen Mondragón). This poetic film merges her artwork, letters, and love stories into a rich cinematic blend of reality and imagination.

Set in post-revolutionary 1920s Mexico, the film reimagines moments from her passionate affair with painter Dr. Atl, her modeling sessions with Diego Rivera, and her artistic work with photographer Antonio Garduño. Filmed in Mexico City, Veracruz, Querétaro, and San Miguel de Allende, it uses real letters, poetry, and paintings to give voice to Nahui's fearless spirit.

  • Angie McAstel as Nahui Olin – Veracruz-born actress, playwright, and director, based in Mexico City.
  • Steven Michael as Dr. Atl – Interdisciplinary artist based in San Miguel de Allende.
  • Alejandro Ruiz as Antonio Garduño – Dancer, teacher, and photographer from Veracruz.
  • Javier García Barrera as Diego Rivera – Painter from San Miguel with exhibitions in NYC, London, Brazil.
  • Iona Michael – Theater artist based in San Miguel de Allende.

Creative Team

  • Eme Eidson – Director, producer, editor and cinematographer. Filmmaker and professor at Pratt Institute (NYC). Over 20 years of experience in documentary and experimental cinema. Founder of Eme Studio Films.
  • Cinematography: Manuel Alejandro Ruiz (Veracruz), Omar Monroy (San Miguel)
  • Assistant Editor: Emmanuel Tovar (Querétaro), founder of ET Films
  • Original Music: Alejandra Alcalde (piano, violin), Sekouna Conte (guitar, drums)
  • Sound Design: Victor Morales (Mexico City)

This bold film invites audiences to discover a woman who lived and created with complete freedom—an inspiration for generations of artists and feminists in Mexico and beyond.
