M20 / Matamoros Ejido 20
Dir. Leonor Maldonado
2023 | Mexico | 87 min.
Synopsis
Living in between the possibilities that the cartel, the sweatshops and the border allow, a group of men from the slums of Matamoros, Tamaulipas, create a dance that beats the ground, that contradicts and breaks the stereotypes of their context and what is expected of their lives. Between the party and the sacred, these men shape their identities and their ways of relating to each other.
