Acerca de esta escucha
Inspirado en la obra clásica de Mary Shelley y ambientado en un Estados Unidos distópico, un hombre deberá reconectar con sus orígenes y construir su propia identidad.
Los "reanimados" están casi completamente integrados en nuestra sociedad, aunque continúan empleados en los trabajos que nadie más quiere hacer. Devueltos a la vida a través de un controvertido proceso en el que se emplean partes de distintos cadáveres, viven en el límite de un mundo que los rechaza casi tanto como los necesita. Y es que, en Estados Unidos, la primera mujer que ha ganado la presidencia tras una campaña electoral anti-reanimación, insiste en que los "zurcidos" son criminales que han llegado para robar los trabajos de sus ciudadanos.
En Los Ángeles, un asistente legal lleva una vida monótona después de que el proceso de reanimación borrara su memoria. Pero todo cambia cuando se enamora de la abogada Faustina Godínez. Al adentrarse en su mundo —lleno de amigos, risas, chilaquiles y pan dulce— el hombre comienza a indagar sobre sus orígenes y a conocer detalles de su propia vida anterior. Pero la incertidumbre a la que se enfrenta no será el único obstáculo que tendrá que superar: los simpatizantes de la causa anti-reanimación siguen sus pasos cada vez más de cerca...
Inspirado en el clásico de Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley y combinando elementos de ciencia ficción, horror, sátira política y romance, Frankenstein Chicano confronta los prejuicios de una sociedad en crisis y cuestiona el verdadero significado de ser humano.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A modern retelling of the Mary Shelley classic that addresses issues of belonging and assimilation.
An unnamed paralegal, brought back to life through a controversial process, maneuvers through a near-future world that both needs and resents him. As the United States president spouts anti-reanimation rhetoric and giant pharmaceutical companies rake in profits, the man falls in love with lawyer Faustina Godínez. His world expands as he meets her network of family and friends, setting him on a course to discover his first-life history, which the reanimation process erased. With elements of science fiction, horror, political satire and romance, Chicano Frankenstein confronts our nation's bigotries and the question of what it truly means to be human.

In 2014, in Lookout Mountain, Alabama, the Prophet—a seventy-year-old man who paints his visions—lives off the grid in a cabin near the Georgia border. While scrounging for materials at the local scrapyard, the Prophet sees a car pull up to an abandoned gas station. In the back seat is a teenage girl with zip ties on her wrists, a girl he realizes he must rescue from her current life. Her name is Michael, and the Prophet feels certain that she is a messenger sent by God to take his end-time warnings to the White House.

Starting out in the mid-70s, a time when few women were directing movies, Susan Seidelman was determined to become a filmmaker. She longed to tell stories about the unrepresented characters she wanted to see on screen: unconventional women in unusual circumstances, needing to express themselves and maintain their autonomy. Her genre-blending films reflect a passion for classic Hollywood storytelling, mixed with a playful New Wave spirit, informed by her years living in downtown NYC.

In the holy city of Tova, the winter solstice is usually a time for celebration and renewal, but this year it coincides with a solar eclipse, a rare celestial even proscribed by the Sun Priest as an unbalancing of the world. Meanwhile, a ship launches from a distant city bound for Tova and set to arrive on the solstice. The captain of the ship, Xiala, is a disgraced Teek whose song can calm the waters around her as easily as it can warp a man’s mind. Her ship carries one passenger.
