An excellent hidden gem from writer/director Luis Estrada that won over 20 awards.
The Mayor of San Pedro loses his head while trying to abscond with the town's money, so the party puts in a figurehead (Damián , - Crónicas, The Crime of Father Amaro) until the elections.
Soon, he figures out the way of politics and is enjoying the benefits - and they are hot benefits! Soon, he is killing his enemies and extorting money like the rest of them. Of course, he manages to rise through his evil as all politicians do.
Alcázar was outstanding in this political satire, as was Salvador Sánchez, Guillermo Gil, and Isela Vega.
