Flora

Movie · 0h 11m

Starring Gabino Rodríguez, Luisa Pardo, Francisco Barreiro, José Rodríguez López

A metacinematic reflection on the nature of representation and the ongoing drug war in Mexico, Nicolás Pereda’s Flora revisits locations and scenes from the mainstream 2010 narco-comedy El Infierno, exploring the paradoxes of depicting narco-trafficking on film—its tendency both to romanticize and to obscure. To screen is both to project and to conceal.
