LA DICTADURA PERFECTA: Check The First Trailer For Luis Estrada's Latest Political Satire

While Mexican director Luis Estrada and star Damián Alcázar did a couple of films together before, their real partnership began in 1999 with the political satire Herod's Law (La Ley de Herodes). 

Since then, Estrada has directed only similar films, all starring Alcázar. A Wonderful World (Un Mundo Maravilloso, 2006) depicted the times of Mexican president Vicente Fox, while 2010's El Infierno (aka El Narco) was a take on president Felipe Calderón and the ongoing war against drugs. 

If you thought of those films as Estrada's sociopolitical trilogy, well, you better think again. La Dictadura Perfecta (the literal translation would be "the perfect dictatorship"), Estrada's new collaboration with Alcázar, is hitting Mexican theaters on October 16 and is going for the same formula. 

La Dictadura Perfecta is Estrada's take on the current president of Mexico, Enrique Peña Nieto, the return of the PRI and its so-called perfect dictatorship, and Televisa, Mexico's biggest television network and key factor for Peña Nieto's 2012 election. 

Check the freshly arrived first trailer below (note that it lacks English subtitles).
