Да здравствует Мексика!
Samenvattingen(1)
The film consists of three vignettes: Sandunga, Manguei, and Fiesta. The first explores the precolonial world of the Incas, observing ancient architecture and detailing pagan religious practices and langorous mating rituals. In the second, a murderer is punished for his crime in an unusually graphic and barbaric manner. The third features a brilliantly photographed bullfight. (officiële tekst van distribiteur)

One might think this will be an ordinary documentary, but Eisenstein and subsequently Aleksandrov, who put the film together, managed to create an image of Mexico that is truly unbelievable. As if it really were a wonderland. Whether or not Eisenstein believed that Mexico would become a strong country, his paintings are beautiful.
