Dead Festival.
One shows an offering,
'The offering that you can see in the video was respectfully
prepared in a Mexican home. It includes sugar and chocolate
skulls as well as Catrinas made of caramel, colorful flowers
and a Mexican traditional folk art involving cutting out patterns
on colourful papers etc.'

The other shows images from the Day of the Dead, showing people
at graves, candles, offerings and shrines.
They say 'The Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead), recently declared by UNESCO
as an “oral and intangible cultural heritage of humanity,” is one of Mexico’s most
cherished traditions. When the souls of the departed return their family speak quietly
with them at graves adorned with offerings of food, candies, liquor, cigarettes, everything their dead enjoyed while alive.'
