Principal photography for the film began on August 30, 2021[9] and ended in October of the same year[10] in the Pueblo Mágico de Real de Catorce in northern San Luis Potosí, Mexico.[11]

Release

The film was scheduled for a limited theatrical release on November 3, 2022,[12] followed by a worldwide release on November 16, 2022, on Netflix.[13] But when the day came, the theatrical and Netflix release was cancelled.[14] This happened because the director Luis Estrada wanted to have a wider theatrical release as Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handfull of Truths had.[15] But he did not reach an agreement with Netflix.[16] After the disagreement, Estrada decided to buy the rights to his film to release his film in most theaters with another distributor.[17] On February 2, 2023, Estrada announced that he had reached a deal with Sony Pictures for a wide theatrical release.[18] Finally, the film was released on March 23, 2023, in Mexico, United States and other countries,[19][20] to then be releasing on May 11 on Netflix.[21]

Controversy

When the film was released, it divided the public and critics, being criticized for "denigrating the country".[22] Among his critics are Juan Osorio Ortiz, a Mexican television producer,[23] and Andrés Manuel López Obrador, the current president of Mexico,[24] who called the film's director a "progressive virtual signaller", classist and racist.[25][26] Following López Obrador's criticism, Luis Estrada responded by noting that the president, instead of worrying about a movie he hasn't even seen, should focus on issues that are more relevant to the country.[27][28]
