Cine Mexicano Kicks Off January with Race of Death Forbidden Love Story
West Palm Beach, FL – Cine Mexicano starts 2019 with a bang, debuting a diverse menu of action, crime, drama and romantic films directed by renown directors Alfonso Ortiz Lara and Rodolfo Rodriguez. These high-quality releases solidify Cine Mexicano as the country’s prime, Spanish-language movie network. Cine Mexicano’s vision is to always feature contemporary and commercial-free programming, including rancheras, comedies and action dramas.
The month begins with Alfonso Ortiz Lara’s romantic action drama Carrera a Muerte (Race of Death). Carrera a Muerte tells the story of two brothers by adoption who fall in love with the same mysterious woman. What they don’t know is that she has changed her name to conceal her deceit. But what starts as a game culminates in very negative consequences because the lady didn’t know that the two men were related. Carrera a Muerte is full of twists and turns and features Jesús Valencia, Valentín Trujillo, Elías Hernández, Margarito Barajas and Saúl Esqueda. The movie debuts January 2, 2019 at 10 p.m.EST, 7 p.m. PT.
