Niña Hermosa is the story of a place—the edge of a road— that links a family tragedy, religious culture, infrastructural change, and erasure. This film, almost entirely visual, observes the past four years of an animita (shrines memorializing devastating deaths) dedicated to a young woman who is now considered miraculous.
