The Crying of Malintzin
Nacho and Memo start working as night watchmen in a Tequila factory. It is a stormy night. As soon as they recognize themselves alone in the middle of the huge industry, they get ready to drink and then they discover an intruder inside the facilities. It is Don Catarino, an old beggar who lives off the mercy of the employees and is the one who warns them that a lost soul usually appears in that factory on stormy nights. He pleads with them to ignore her and not allow her to involve them in her troubles. As soon as he disappears, a woman asks them for help to shelter from the storm.

It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
