TE PROMETO ANARQUÍA (2015) dir. Julio Hernández Cordón Miguel and Johnny skate with their friends through Mexico City, revel in their blissful sexuality, and make a bit of cash in the illegal blood trade. A contact hooks them up with drug traffickers who need black-market blood since they can’t go to hospitals, and it all seems like a perfect way to make a lot of money. But the scheme goes off the rails, and Miguel and Johnny are in over their heads, their eyes opened too late to the truly disturbing underground network of clinics servicing those injured in the drug wars.

TOWARDS A THIRD CINEMA: NOTES AND EXPERIENCES FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A CINEMA OF LIBERATION IN THE THIRD WORLD (Argentina, 1969)
"This profoundly influential manifesto, which coins the term Third Cinema, lays out Solanas and Getino’s strategy in making their groundbreaking La hora de los hornos (The Hour of the Furnaces, Argentina, 1968). They position Third Cinema in contra-distinction to Hollywood fi lm (First Cinema) and European “waves” and art cinema, including cinema novo (Second Cinema). They give priority to the documentary as a form of cinema that allows for social and political analysis and transformation, calling it the main basis of revolutionary fi lmmaking. They set out to transform not only what kinds of images appear on the screen but also the ways in which moving images are distributed and screened in Latin America, arguing for exhibition practices that lie outside the dominant, capitalist modes of spectatorship. As Jonathan Buchsbaum has demonstrated, Solanas and Getino did not mean for this manifesto to be static; as such they revised it over the years, adapting it to political changes and to what they discovered through their collective Cine Liberación and through screenings of Hour of the Furnaces throughout Latin America." (Film Manifestos and Global Cinema Cultures, a Critical Anthology, 2014, Scott MacKenzie)

El Crimen del Padre Amaro (2002, Carlos Carrera) 🇲🇽
With release delayed a few months to avoid collision with the Pope's visit, around the time the Catholic church was being exposed for pedophilia all over the world, the film broke box office records in Mexico after the country’s Catholic leadership and conservative / anti-abortion groups tried to ban it, driving even more people to see it.
It proceeded to be nominated for Best Foreign Language Film at the Academy Awards and won Best Picture at the Ariel Awards.
