A Cop Movie Una película de policías
Synopsis
Police corruption is rampant around the world, but Mexico City’s la policía are among the most notorious. In this thoroughly original and unpredictable docu-fiction hybrid, award-winning filmmaker Alonso Ruizpalacios (Museo, Narcos: Mexico) follows the story of a unique pair of cops, Teresa and Montoya, together known as “the love patrol.” Through a series of captivating reenactments, interviews with the actors portraying the police and then the real-life figures themselves, the film inventively and imaginatively interrogates the troubling double bind of those trying to enforce the law within a dysfunctional system in which morality has no sway.
