This year is very speical , it's encoded in the pyramid ! 481 the height of the pyramid times 12 of the zodiac = the jewish new year 5772, 29th of September 2011 . Spread the good news !
That's right, just look at the "Tomatodo": it's a dreidel! And the chocolate coins of holidays are the same ones in Hannukah. Latkes are "tortitas de papa"... the list can go on! :)
You´re right my city was founded by Jewish guys and at the end of XVI century more than 25 % citizens in that city were Jewish, in facts is known that many guys of that city have Jewish roots and they don´t know it. My city is one of the most important Mexican cities by size and economy is Monterrey. There is a youtube video from History channel that tell what I wrote here (Mexico, los descendientes judios ( ) de Monterrey)
This movie was set in Mexico, its in spanish but they use some yididish words and expressions. Its good and funny althought Im not sure how funny can be in english because what it makes it funny are the "mexican" expressions and situations, only if have great translation...if u have the chance see it and let me know how u like it? :-)
my grandpa was jewish. he was from leon, guanajuato, the same city the last mex president, vicente fox, was from. there's several million jews in mexico, but like here, they're a small minority.
not millions dude there are actually about 50 to 100 thousand jews, getting this kind of demographic data in mexico its kinda hard cause the goverment dosent take neither religious or racial statiitics in the census, theres all kind off groups here but they all assimilate to mexican culture preetty easily you can see it in this movie they are all 100% mexican using mexican words like (cabron & chinga tu madre) they are just jewish aswell
no, i'd definitely say millions. no more then 2 or 3, but still. alot of them have blended with the rest of mexican society. though, generally the upper class.
well it depends on what you really mean by jews, there was a lot of jews persecuted during colony times that became catholics to avoid persecution, & some others do the same during franco time when they came as refugees to mexico, but they dont count as jews (for us) we only see somebody as a jew if he really practices judaism the rest dont, u can google it the total (note mexican census do not take in acount race or religion) number the jews are from 40 to 50 thousands i think mostly sephardits
there were alot of jews that immigrated to latin america, mostly in the 20th century. for the most part, south america. how many of those today in mexico are practicing judaism, i don't know. so perhaps in that sense, their not "jewish". but i can tell you, from personal experience, there are alot. there's other minorities, too. la chinesca, has a small chinese community. chipilo has a small italian community, where they even speak a dialect of italian. also afro-mexicans in costa chica.
Is it set in Mexico? Note: Mexico City has a population of over 1 million Jewish citizens(and at least 3 bagel factories). Also wondering: is it in Spanish, perhaps Yiddish-Spanish?
