One day we will all die. The main story in this film shows an example of how young people usually care for their elders, spending all their time to help others instead of helping themselves. It is a story of two persons from different age groups that interact in a somewhat tense environment. Each of the two main characters live in the context of a mutual need, however the younger still looking for a greater selfish need to live life with greater passion regardless of other persons opinions or what other people can think of it. To live your own life to the fullest you should spend time caring about yourself rather than taking care of others. That would be the conclusion understood after watching this gem. But beware, because if you surpass the limits you might end up in hell.

A documentary that shows how the Mexican Revolution transformed the country and its people in the early twentieth century. The film depicts a video narrative of events without words, showing a series of shots from around the historical period of 1900-1920, depicting the roles of each the important political and social figures in Mexico in that time. It is seen how life in Mexico had a sharp contrast in between the period before and after, first showing Dictator Porfirio Díaz and how the way he militarized the country made people unhappy which also brought social revolts and other problems that began to arise.

A short film that takes place in a train station in a rural area, describing several different themes joining various states of mind of the human being that contrast with one another. Waiting for the train to arrive creates a series of mixed feelings in the character's thoughts, on the one hand the sadness of having lost a child, and the need to receive neighborly love to satisfy the void left by the loss. I loved the symbolism it projects in the dialogues and images seen in the different scenes that are shown. The human need for giving and receiving milk, the rain descibingin an artistic way the profound inner sadness and the feeling of being wet. I was able to see it as part of a compilation of short films entitled Tres Tristes Trenes, for the World Audiovisual Heritage Day Show on open television channel Canal Catorce.
