Dos Estaciones

Juan Pablo González Mexico 2022 109 min Live action

A 40% drama that attracted attention at the Sundance festival and harvested awards like tequila agave. Jokes aside, Mexican actress Teresa Sánchez has rightly been praised for her role as hard-boiled tequila producer María, who runs the family business Dos Estaciones. When most other tequila companies have been bought up by international groups, she is the last woman standing. But how long can she hold out? Finances are bleeding and unexpected floods, and plant diseases make the situation incredibly stressful. By the way, did you know that a drink can only be called tequila if at least 51% of the mash comes from tequila agave from certain Mexican regions? For example. Jalisco, where the film takes place.
