Calderon Films

Three newlywed couples and the priest who married them face problems imposed on them by unquestioning adherence to patriarchal values.

This film traces the unbelievable true story of the Calderón family, who built grand movie palaces in Mexico and the U.S., employing thousands to produce incomparable, hugely successful, and often reprehensible populist-genre films that were utterly and uniquely Mexican.
