2010 | B/N | 78 min Documentary composed of images that were rescued, preserved and digitally restored by the UNAM Film Archive, with the support of the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH).

The film is made with moving images registered during these historical events, primarily by pioneer filmmakers, the Alva brothers, and reveals the contradictory and fearful gaze of the contemporary population.
