El baile de San Juan
Duration: 120 min
During the final decade of 18th century in Mexico City, capital of the vice-royalty of New Spain, the official choreographer publicly complains of the abusive and unjust methods of the administrator of the vice-royalty, and puts in jeopardy his life and his mestizo son's, in a climate of social privation, racism and intrigues of power and religion faith that grows out of proportion when the Inquisition intervenes.—Edgar Soberón Torchia
