Manuel and Carmen One morning in 1922, Carmen Mondragón bursts into the painter?s studio of Manuel Rodriguez Lozano, her ex-husband, in a violent rage to reproach him for spreading rumors that she had killed their baby. His evasive attitude, along with the presence of Abraham Ángel, who poses nude for his teacher, spurs yet another of the disputes that would give life to the legend of these two contemporary Mexican artists

Mexico will no longer exist!

¡Aoquic iez in Mexico! ¡Ya México no existirá más!

A frenetic view runs over a convulsed Mexico City, a colossal metropolis sustained by the myth of "mestizaje" and other colonial forms of violence. Past and present weave a flurry of images; fragmented memories of this land. Ancient deities are incarnated, while dreams overlap among intimacy, complicity and the tumult. This is an erratic film that invites us to reimagine the complex relationship we have with the constructed “mexicanidad.”
