In September 2014, a convoy of Mexican students was brutally attacked by police and unidentified masked assailants. Six people were killed and forty-three were abducted and never heard from again. Vivos is a mournful ode to the victims, and a perceptive study of the psychological effects on the families left behind, methodically bringing to life the memory of each and every victim through empathetic renderings and reflections, stunning photography, and director Ai Weiwei’s introspective and highly creative signature style.
