At early age children begin to work in the Mexican countryside. “The Inheritors” is a portrait of theirs lives and their daily struggle for survival. They have inherited tools and techniques from their ancestors, as well as their day-by-day hardship. Generations pass and they remain captive in a cycle of inherited poverty.
