"Interdite pendant trente ans, cette production du Syndicat des travailleurs de la production cinématographique s'attaque au tabou de l'armée mexicaine. Mexique, 1920. Président de la République doit désigner son successeur (un militaire tout comme lui). Sa préférence va au premier ministre même si c'est le ministre de la défense qui est le plus populaire. De fil en aiguille, le ministre de la défense se trouve pris dans une opération tendant à le présenter comme candidat à la présidence. Il sera abattu avec ses plus proches collaborateurs... La Sombra del caudillo est un film-clés pour comprendre la Révolution mexicaine, pour comprendre en quoi elle n'a jamais pu aboutir."
"La sombra del caudillo portrays the turbulent political situation in post-revolutionary Mexico in 1920. The imminent succession of the military leader in power is about to be decided. Aguirre is chosen as the candidate of the Radical Progressive Party, but his boss, El Caudillo, has chosen another candidate, Jiménez. Aguirre must decide between his loyalty to the regime and the opportunity to accede to power. Several moves between the opposing factions lead to a violent climax."
""En el México de los años veinte, la inminente sucesión del caudillo militar en el poder está a punto de decidirse. El caudillo favorece la candidatura del General Jiménez, ministro de gobernación, a pesar de la simpatía que despierta el general Aguirre, ministro de guerra. Aguirre se retira de la contienda, pero sus partidaros continuan apoyándolo. Orillado por las circunstancias, Aguirre debe decidir entre su lealtad al régimen y la oportunidad de acceder al poder". --Envase."

""Corre el año de 1924 en México; Carranza, Madero, Villa y Zapata han muerto y Plutarco Elías Calles está a punto de ocupar la silla presidencial, inaugurando así una nueva etapa en la historia del país. Triste e irónicamente, en este proceso se han cometido violentas traiciones a los principios fundamentales de la revolución. Basada en la novela del mismo nombre, "La Sombra del Caudillo" es un filme que encierra una polémica y reveladora historia, que provocó un veto de 30 años y toda una leyenda detrás de su primera exhibición oficial en 1990."--Envase."@es
