Semana Santa: 
    Easter In Mexico

    A tradition of 153 years.....More than 1,000,000 spectators....this is Semana Santa in Mexico. All over Mexico, during Holy Week, there are plays re-enacting the Passion of Jesus, but it is universally known that there is none more spectacular than the one that takes place in Iztapalapa, a neighborhood in the heart of Mexico City! This centuries old tradition holds together a community, that prepares for a whole year for this celebration. Mexican popular culture is seen at its best through this festivity: religious fervor , folklore, entertainment, all perfectly intermixed.

Review
I just wanted to share with you that I enjoyed your DVD: Semana Santa; Easter in Mexico.   If a Spanish instructor has a limited amount of time to introduce Holy Week in Mexico to his/her students, then, I recommend this product.
