New Order

Countries collapse quickly and this is one of the few movies that express that speed.

Set in Mexico, New Order takes from a wedding day through riot to a military coup and beyond.

The story focuses on the events around one family and their servants. Each subplot deals with the personal and family tragedy that evolves.

Each character reacts to their circumstances and the challenges they face - asking us how we would react faced with similar circumstances. Would we buckle under or would we stand for right.

It is well portrayed and acted but be warned it is graphic. The prison scenes in particular are difficult to watch.
