A chronicle of the Mexican oil expropriation in 1938 through the eyes of President Lazaro Cardenas and journalist Alberto Miranda.
Acting
Ianis Guerrero's Cárdenas—quiet steel, zero swagger.
Production
Period detail that smells like tobacco and typewriter ink.
Writing
Makes oil nationalization actually tense? Witchcraft.
