But that act that seems to trigger the mere memory of places and experiences before dying, suddenly merges with other characters and dramatic experiences, which give life to a limit work, of desperate, almost intolerable courage, obstinate in dismantling all institutional discourses of the history of Mexico, without ceasing to use extraordinarily all possible cinematographic resources.
