Communiqués 1, 2 and 4 from the National Strike Council Trailers

In the summer of 1968 major demonstrations took the streets. “We do not want the Olympic Games, we want a revolution”. Leduc, Rafael Castanedo, Óscar Menéndez and others participated in the movement, creating public statements in the form of cinétracts, based on still photographs (especially by Héctor García), documenting the violent state’s action. They were shot in July-August to circulate between universities and gather people in the auditoriums for further political debates. Later, ten days prior to the opening of the Summer Olympics, a military massacre against the students was committed.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
