RiverRun Film Festival: "El lugar sin limites" Introduction Part 1

'El lugar sin limites' (1977), directed by Arturo Ripstein, is a highly acclaimed Mexican film that exemplifies the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema, featuring a distinguished cast including Fernando Soler and Roberto Cobo, and exploring recurring themes of family, power, and morality; despite winning numerous Ariel Awards and achieving international recognition, Ripstein's reputation in Mexico has declined over the decades, illustrating the complex relationship between artistic achievement and national acceptance.
