About El Motero
Two rival families compete for control of the illicit drug trade in their region, each determined to dominate the territory at any cost. Within the Morales family, Gustavo is considered the black sheep — impulsive, conflicted, and vulnerable. Sensing weakness, the Cortés family exploits Gustavo as their strategic advantage, using him as the Achilles’ heel to dismantle the Morales operation from within. As betrayal deepens and loyalties fracture, the power struggle intensifies into a ruthless battle for dominance. In a world where family is both strength and vulnerability, one man’s weakness could determine who controls the empire.
Directed by Alonso O. Lara, El Motero leans on a strong ensemble — Luis Huizar, Jesus Heredia El Gatillo, Vianey Huizar — 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 screen titles of 2018.
