What happens

Un mundo maravilloso ("A Wonderful World") is a 2006 Mexican satirical black comedy film produced by Bandidos Films, directed by Luis Estrada and considered a "spiritual sequel" to La ley de Herodes; it is a political satire about Vicente Fox Quesada's government and its neo-liberal doctrine. Unlike La ley de Herodes, this film was released without interference from Fox's government, and it even was partly sponsored by Imcine. The film's spiritual successor, El Infierno was released on September 3, 2010, to coincide with the 200th anniversary of Mexican independence. Another "spiritual sequel", La dictadura perfecta, was released on October 16, 2014. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
