"Toscanito, coleccionista de historias" (Primer episodio de Luces, cámara...revolución) Parting from an archaic database containing thousands of film stills from one of Salvador Toscano’s compilation films, this piece deconstructs Memorias de un mexicano—the film that Carmen Toscano put together in 1950 using the footage her father had shot.
