Well, I´m 32 years old now, but when that awful nightmare I was only 6 years old. Maybe the film has a lot of goofs and technical difficulties, but made me remember all the tragedy in my town.
The movie begins when a couple get married and then go to a hotel on their wedding night. Suddenly, the earthquake comes and the hotel come down. They are the only survivors and the husband tries to make a tunnel to get help for his wife, who has her legs broke.
In the middle of the movie, real footage of the tragedy is shown and narrates the dimensions of the tragedy: 100 thousand people died and half a million people with his houses destroyed. A narration says thanks to every country to help us to rebuild our country, including México, countries of Central America, Spain, USA and a very special thanks to prisoners in Montevideo, who donate their blood to help earthquake's victims.
I saw this movie yesterday with my son (8 years old) and he couldn't imagine the magnitude of the tragedy. Personally, I will never forget it and hope never revive that nightmare again.
About the film, Norma Lazareno did an excellent job, sadly her talent is used in mexican soap operas only. By the way, the movie was made in Guatemala and not in Mexico.
