It can be better is the first conclusion after its end. And, obvious, it is true . But the film has many virtues who is not fair to ignore. The exploration of a sensitive episode of early Mexican XX century is the first. Second - the atmosphere, architecture of tension, the clothes and rooms, the decent use of fragments of informations about the case, the pledge for tolerance, reasonable picture of a world, the refuge and the good acting, Mabel Cadena being the good example. A film who reminds old, basic truths about vulnerability, appearences, compromises, public image, desire and the reality behind sparkles. So, a good way to tell a high uncomfortable story.
