Plot Sypnosis:

An early horror classic drawn from Mexico's rich tradition of folklore, La Llorona recounts the chilling tale of the 'wailing woman' who kills herself and her child before returning to haunt the living.

Expressionistic, lyrical and atmospheric, Ramón Peón's film draws on the influence of Universal Pictures' contemporaneous horror cycle and incorporates elements of period melodrama and romance. This landmark production in the evolution of Mexican cinema has been newly restored from the only surviving film elements, and is presented here with a selection of essential extras.

  • NEW RESTORATION from the only surviving film element
  • Original mono audio
  • La llorona: Behind the Scenes (2021): documentary by Viviana García Besné, the producer's great granddaughter, relaying a personal history of the film
