Historia de la vida cotidiana en México

This work contains fresh information located at the Sergei Eisenstein Museum and in his personal archive, both located in Moscow, which clearly indicates that there is still more to say about the Soviet director's unfinished movie, financed by Upton Sinclair. The discovery of the first version of the screenplay as well as books on Mexico and bullfight programs enables the manner in which the film developed and was structured through short stories to be reconsidered.

En este recorrido por los barrios de la ciudad, los autores contrastan la cotidianidad de la tropa zapatista con la imagen de la elite social de los años veinte, cuando irrumpe la radio en el ámbito doméstico y modifica los ritos familiares; se asoman a la vida de las fábricas chihuahuenses, a las aulas, a las fiestas de uno de tantos pueblos del país, a la sanidad en el puerto de Veracruz, al mundo indígena a través de las imágenes en los libros de texto, a la participación de la mujer en la lucha campesina por la tierra en la ciudad de Monterrey, entre otros aspectos de la vida...

Xavier Sardà, harto de algunas de las incongruencias que se producen en el Estado de las autonomías, se pregunta cómo explicaría a alguien que no conoce la realidad de este país, qué es España exactamente. Él es catalán y catalanista, pero no quiere que Cataluña se convierta en un país independiente.
