“The live gives us opportunities to correct our mistakes”


The movie titled “1973” is a documentary directed by Antonino Isordia Llamazares, a talented Mexican director who born in 1973 and who have been recognized for his most famous films: “1973” and “los niños devoran lobos”. His documentaries have been nominated for Ariel awards also he won the Silver Goddess Mexican award and the JVC award of the International Film Festival.


“You go out at 6am not knowing if you going to come back” This documentary is a drama film, which describes the hard lives of three different Mexican people who were born in 1973. These three people are: Rodolfo, (a guy who when he was teenager decided to become a member of a dangerous gang called “porros”) Maria Fernanda (who had a terrible accident when she was drug addicted), and finally Alejandro (who in 1992 murdered his family and who nowadays continues in prison).


This documentary is interesting because it shows you the life from different perspectives in order to understand a little why these people acted of that way, also in helps you to think how each action that you do now can give you consequences in a future. Also this documentary can be a little difficult to understand so is very important to pay it a lot of attention, maybe it could be a little bit tedious to watch because it is in black and white, but if you focus your attention in the stories that each character describes surely you would like it more.
