Gerardo Naranjo
Mexico | 2011 | 113mins | 35mm | Colour
The exhilirating Miss Bala focuses on the plight of Laura, a ravishing beauty who dreams of being crowned Miss Baja California, as she witnesses a night-club massacre by a group of cartel members. The influence of the cartel upon the local authorities becomes clear to Laura after she speaks to a policeman about the incident, who promptly delivers her straight to the gang leader, Lino.
Director Naranjo crafts a scintillating drama refracted through incisive political commentary on malevolence in Mexico. Gripping and heartbreaking in equal measure, Miss Bala is a master class in cinematic storytelling where the substance is always on a par with the style.
