Lot Essay

The film opens with a spectacular, action-packed sequence centred on Mexico City’s Day of the Dead celebration. Oscar-winning production designer, Dennis Gassner, created his own version of the festival which was shot over several days in and around Zócalo Square, Plaza Tolsa and the Centro Historico neighbourhood in March 2015 with over 1,500 extras. Several of these three-wheel bikes festooned with hand-made papier-mâché skeletons, toy guitars, tin and paper decorations added atmosphere to the parade.
