Director: Gerardo Lara
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Sensitive if somewhat drawn-out account of the sentimental education of a 16-year-old girl from a Mexican village, who, against the wishes of father and childhood sweetheart, goes to high school in the city of Toluca in 1976. Strong on her friendship with another girl, and fine, if predictable, on her experiences with various macho types, the film is weakest in its pretension towards wider social comment.Author: GA
