After studying filmmaking I discovered a book written by my moms uncle, Miguel Contreras Torres: The Black Book of Mexican Cinema. Through his investigations I found out about his memorable life and the situation he lived in, how he witnessed a fresh and successful film industry go down in the hands of the movie theatre monopoly owner William O. Jenkins, perhaps we can avoid repeating the same mistakes.
