Cronicas
If it’s on TV it must be the Truth
From the producers of Y Ti Mama Tambien comes a shocking new thriller about the power of the media. Tabloid TV reporter, Manolo Bonilla (John Leguizamo) has traveled from Miami with his news crew on the trail of a story about a serial killer striking a small town in Ecuador. Convinced this story could be the ‘big one’ that makes him a network star, he is willing to bend the rules to get the facts. But the closer he gets to uncovering the truth, the more he finds his carefully planned story spinning dangerously out of control. Soon, Bonilla and his crew find themselves at the center of a frightening situation where even the best intentions can backfire. Featuring a pan-Latin cast and crew, Cronicas is written and directed by Sebastian Cordero and produced by acclaimed filmmakers Alfonso Cuarón and Guillermo del Toro.
This sounds good. This sounds very good. This sounds like the sort of film you get when you let the likes of Alfonso Cuarón and Guillermo del Toro make a film about the media. There is a lot of good stuff coming out of Latin America at the moment, and this film looks like no exception.
