Miss del Río
Miss del Río traces the rise of one of the first major Latina stars of Hollywood — and her reinvention in Mexican cinema — through the unique lens of Bárbara Mujica's acclaimed novel.
Blending history, identity, fame, politics and personal freedom, it is an intimate, contemporary portrait of a woman far ahead of her time.
Currently in development
Adapted from the acclaimed novel Miss del Río by Bárbara Mujica — bestselling author of Frida.
