JAIME AYMERICH Y UN SECRETO DE ESPERANZA

Beloved Mexican screen legend Katy Jurado lights up the screen one last time in her final film, the story of a special friendship that develops between a solitary elderly woman and Jorge, a rebellious teen in Mexico City in 1984. Through the use of flashbacks, Jorge, now an adult, learns one last beautiful mystery about the person who played an important role in his youth. Could it be that the old friend who taught him so much about life was none other than Esperanza Malagon Prieto, who, in 1939, was the first Latin-American woman to win a Nobel Prize in Literature? This fascinating film won three awards, including the Audience Award, at the 2002 Trieste Festival of Latin American Cinema. Screened as part of the Katy Jurado Tribute.For mature audiences.
