Screening of "EL INFIERNO"

Thursday Feb 23, 7PM @ Red Emma's

Red Emma's is pleased to host JHU's Program in Latin American Studies with their screening of El INFIERNO. A black comedy based on ordinary life in Mexico following President Felipe Calderón’s declared “war against drug trafficking and organized crime,” El INFIERNO centers on Benny García’s return to his hometown in northern Mexico after being deported from the United States. Benny returns to find a changed town, where the only viable way to make a living is by entering the narco world. With dark humor, the film examines grotesque forms of narco violence and political corruption that constitute life in much of Mexico today.
