As Pancho Villa and his men marched towards Monterrey, the men of provisional president Venustiano Carranza made a final stand at Ramos Arizpe, outside of Saltillo. As the battle began, the fog set in. The Villistas and Carrancistas didn’t know who was who. They each shot at their own side. They gave opposition forces ammunition not realizing they would be used against them. Ultimately, through the confusion, it was the Villistas that prevailed. Around 3,000 prisoners were taken but released on the condition they would swear with their hand to God that they would never fight on the side of Carranza again. Some rejoined the fight and were killed, while others accepted their release from war. Some fled north across the border, while others found their way to Santa María, singing songs of their freedom.
A novella by Nicholas Gill and Alejandro Cartagena.
A collection of 151 “expired photographs” that were thrown out, collected from a tianguis outside of Mexico City by photographer and archivist Alejandro Cartagena and then pieced together and reimagined by writer Nicholas Gill. The 151-page novella tells the tale of the fictional town of Santa María de las Rocas, located in the Mexican state of Tamaulipas.
The story traces this coastal community from its humble origins at the turn of the century to the 1980s, as it corresponds to real events in the history of this corner of Mexico. As years pass, the landscape changes and the community grows and develops. There’s corruption and violence, magic and hope. Characters fall in love and fall apart. Their voices are heard. Their songs are sung.
The existence of this project is designed to question the very nature of storytelling and its possibilities in the digital age. As such, it’s done as a CO0, for free public use.
