"A musical and visual presentation of that marvelous Mexican event in which the ancient Indian and Spanish cultures are so colorfully blended. Lured by the sounds of a fiesta, a young visitor is drawn to a small Indian village, where he finds groups of dancers in dazzling feathered costumes. Outside an ancient church, he tastes the spicy wares of the taco seller, watches as children whirl to the music of the mariachi, and swoops high above the crowd on a wonderful man-powered carousel. As night comes to the fiesta, pinwheels and rockets burst from the Castillo, signaling the close of the annual celebration." - Summary from the teacher's guide
