Music
Nearly thirty years after making his surrealist La Formula Secreta, director Rubén Gámez returned to filmmaking with this impressionistic portrait of modern-day Mexico. Reminiscent in some ways of Godfrey Reggio’s Koyaanisqatsi, Tequila appears to be a cinematic extension of Mexico’s muralist tradition, a contemporary equivalent of Diego Rivera or David Alfaro Siqueiros with vignettes, quick ideas, visual puns, cartoons, and political statements.

During the six-year term of President Luis Echeverría, a Mexico-United States coexistence day was organized in Washington. American children and adults flocked to the cathedral, where Mexican dancers performed regional dances. It was a day of folk music, dances, Mexican crafts and food exhibitions.
Cinematography
A large part of the town of Juchitepec, State of Mexico, has left its place of origin to seek its fortune in the city. The survivors suffer the sale of their best land for agriculture to a pantheon. Death is a constant in a place where there is barely enough food.
