En el paraíso no existe el dolor (1995)
a poetic view of mother-son relationships
27 October 1998
This movie is a very subtle glance at the nightlife and mysterious characters of a large Mexican metropolis. But it also relates in a very poetic and beautiful way, the agonizing pain caused by the loss of a dear cousin and how it brings Manuel back to his mothers own 'paradise'. The 'utopic' life by the mother's side seems obscured and overwhelmed by the loss of your own childhood and the temptations of the real world.
