No One Writes to the Colonel

Directed by Arturo Ripstein

With Fernando Luján, Marisa Paredes, Salma Hayek Pinault, Rafael Inclán and Ernesto Yáñez

Every Friday, the Colonel puts on his only suit and goes to the dock to await a letter announcing the arrival of his pension. But the townsfolk all know that this pension will never come. His wife also knows it, and even he knows it. But he is still waiting, living with the pain of the death of his son.
