On Sunday I took my daughter to the movies and was surprised to see a huge movie poster for the documentary “Hecho en México” with a picture of musician Carla Morrison on one side and of the band Kinky on the other – two Mexican artists I listen to all the time.
I immediately went online to find out what this was all about and found this trailer:
Now, I can not wait for November 31st to come around because I feel this film is speaking to me. Even though I was born in El Salvador, I now believe that my soul is from México. The five years I lived there taught me more about myself, my passions and my role in life that any other time in my life. I am definitely “Hech(a) en Mexico” in so many ways – my musical tastes, the culture and the foods that bind me, the connections to the land and its magic. In fact, this is “my Mexico”…the real one.
Last year I was an official México Today ambassador and wrote about the many beauty and wonders in México. Today, I am still an ambassador at heart and need to spread the word about this documentary because I feel it’s the closest one I’ve seen to portray what México is really all about. I even want my daughter to see this with us and her #HechoenMexico papá!!
Learn more about the movie HERE and Like “Hecho en México” on Facebook since they’re sharing lots of fun clips and songs.
Thanks for posting this! The next time someone asks me why I love ( and live in ) Mexico I’ll send them a link to this video!
