Macario
Roberto Gavaldón, Mexico 1959, 90' Spanish with English subtitles
On the Day of the Dead, impoverished woodcutter Macario (Ignacio López Tarso) agrees to share the first decent meal he’s ever had with an apparition from the spirit world. His reward: a miraculous liquid that heals any illness, bringing him fame and fortune, but arousing the suspicions of the authorities.
