Imagen del documetal "Las voces de uarhi iurhixe":
El canto, como expresion cultural, ha servido para adorar a idolos y
dioses. En mi pueblo, Santa Fe de la Laguna desde 1543 el tiempo se
ha encargado de entonar Y mezclar cantos en latin, espanol y p'urhepecha,
para venerar a Uarhi Iurhixe (La Virgen Maria). A pesar de los cambios
propios de nuestro tiempo, la mujer se ha encargado de mantener vivo
este ritual, estando siempre presente nuestra vision, la p'urhepecha.
