A Sweet Scent of Death
Ramón is secretly in love with Adela. One morning, he discovers her corpse among the oat fields
Tequila
Because of her selflessness and courage, this film is dedicated to the Mexican woman.
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.
