Description
Un Banquete en Tetlapayac is Debroise’s contemporary reenactment of the events surrounding the filming of director Sergei Eisenstein’s Que Viva Mexico (1931). Eisenstein’s production was halted for some time when the lead actor went to jail for accidentally shooting his sister. During the hiatus,the crew killed time at the Hacienda Tetlapayac,watching movies, eating, drinking, debating, anddancing. Sixty-seven years later, Debroise inviteda group of artists, filmmakers, and intellectuals to reconstruct what happened at the hacienda. Un Banquete is both homage to Eisenstein’s directorial
legacy and an investigation of representation,
nature, and history itself.
