Synopsis

From his earliest beginnings in the film medium, where he observed the machinations of the Mexican film business alongside his producer father and later worked as an assistant to Luis Buñuel, director Arturo Ripstein has had a vantage point of Mexican society and culture that few others can boast of. And he has chosen to use his talent to tell stories that few others would. He shows us lives on the fringes of culture and confronts us with the paradoxes of modern “civilized” life.
