About The Storm That Swept Mexico
The Storm That Swept Mexico tells the gripping story of the Mexican Revolution of 1910, the first major political and social revolution of the 20th century. The revolution not only changed the course of Mexican history, transforming economic and political power within the nation, but also profoundly impacted the relationships between Mexico, the U.S. and the rest of the world.
Directed by Ray Telles, The Storm That Swept Mexico leans on a strong ensemble — Luis Valdez, Alex Saragoza, Barry Carr — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2011.
