Award-winning filmmaker Paul Leduc [Frida (1984)] directed this gritty musical drama about life in the ghettos of Mexico City during the 1980s. With a soundtrack of contemporary Mexican rock, the camera takes the viewer through the streets, bars, and rock clubs in order to expose the hunger, repression, unhealthy conditions and violence in the marginal communities of Mexico's capital city. "The tradition of a committed experimental cinema [remains] alive with...Paul Leduc" (Oxford History of World Cinema). Como Ves? was an Ariel Award nominee for Best Actor in a Minor Role (Jose Rodriguez). In Spanish with English subtitles.
