| Martin Luis Guzman's novel, which was the object of strict censorship for thirty years, is the basis of our story, which takes pIace in post-revoIutionary Mexico. No doubt the film was bIackIisted due to its raw, incriminating content, which perfectIy showcased the dirty politicaI deaIings of those times. The fiIm was banned from Mexican theaters and there were claims that the negative and aIl its copies had been destroyed. However, poor quaIity, pirated renderings of the fiIm have been being circuIated surreptitiousIy since, with it now being Iooked upon as a cuIt classic. The film was finaIIy released and shown in 1990 by director, Julio Bracho's, famiIy. At some point, the film was finalIy recognized by The Cineteca NacionaI De Mexico as a vitaI piece Mexico's cinematic history and undoubtabIy because of its artistic allure, so in their endeavor to preserve Mexican Cinema, the film was finaIIy restored. ln our story, conflicting poIiticaI aims and views and the universal Iust for power, have the characters finding themseIves in a dangerous climate where it's dog-eat-dog and where corruption abounds. So, when candidates are being chosen for the new term for the presidency, they find themselves at the mercy of their current president, El Caudillo, who will resort to anything to have his will be done, even kidnapping, betrayaI, and murder. |
