Julio Cesar Chávez is a documentary directed by the international actor, Diego Luna. (Y Tu Mama Tambien, Frida, MILK). It tells the story of a Mexican boxer who went from being a struggling car washer to becoming a legend. Not only do we learn the achievements of a champion, but we also peek into his everyday life. We examine the relationship of his son who has followed his father’s footsteps by achieving success on his own. Through Diego Luna’s directorial debut we are more able to understand the human, social, and political aspects of the life of one of the most important personalities of recent Mexican history.
