FF10/2006 "Hasta el último trago...corazón!

dir. Beto Gomez, 2005, Mexico, 90 min.

This documentary is a valentine to Mexican music and the women who have contributed to its development with their distinctive voices. Chavela Vargas, Lila Downs, Eugenia León, Astrid Hadid, La Negra Graciana and Iraida Noriega delight us with their music and their perspectives on politics, love and the role of women in the musical world. They use their music to promote cultural change from both a political and feminist perspective. From the postmodern Astrid Hadid to the blues singer Iraida Noriega, the film is an appreciation of their completely divergent sounds. Eugenia León possesses a quiet, seductive power on stage. Lila Downs is the earth mother who invokes Frida Kahlo and traditional Mexican culture and couples it with jazz and multimedia, creating a soundscape that that's uniquely feminine, strong and modern. Explaining their struggles and their successes, these women illuminate what is vital in modern Mexican music. A Mexican musical feast!
Screening at 10th International Latino Film Festival - San Francisco Bay Area on

Excelente documental. Cuando canta Lila Downs y Chavela Vargas :La Llorona", cada una por su parte, se te hace un nudo en la garganta. Muy recomendable.
