Manage episode 235596407 series 2510690
On Christmas Eve, 1985, 140 priceless pre-Hispanic pieces were stolen from the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City. A national shock, authorities searched relentlessly for years before details emerged about what's considered to be the biggest heist in Mexican history.
Winner of the Silver Bear for best script at the Berlin International Film Festival, directed by Mexican auteur Alonso Ruizpalacios (who also co-wrote the screenplay with Manuel Alcalá), and starring Gael Garcia Bernal, the film explores the relationship between myth and fiction, and the lore behind the uncanny crime that's irrevocably tied to Mexican history.
