Rompan Todo: L'histoire du rock en Amérique Latine

Loved it. Very touching. It summarizes amanzingly how Rock en tu Idioma came to be. Really liked the format, following the timeline. Nowadays, many like to tell stories playing with flashbacks, going back and forth. I am glad this was not the case as I could remember it all as I lived it. I found it fast paced tho'... or maybe I was just enjoying too much.

If you were young in the 80's in Latin America, this is must see. Every group and performer has some minutes in this documentary. I actually learned a few things about how this cultural phenomenon came to be.

I enjoyed the first part of the documentary, showing the early stages of rock, the political circumstances that model the artist. Then this documentary turns into cheap and gross propaganda of Gustavo Santaolalla bands.

In the part of the 90s to the actuality only talks about the commercial (complacent rock as Santaolalla says) and left behind the really popular bands like La Renga, Ataque 77, Callejeros (Only named for Cromagnon), Rata Blanca, and many others. The time dedicated to Los Redonditos and Pappo is insulting compared with other artists.

This is a documentary of commercial/complacent rock, not about popular rock.

If any given rock music fan wanted a comprehensive ride into Latin American rock since 1957, then this documentary is a must-see. Yet they wouldn't only get just a chronicle. They 'd also catch a glimpse into some of, if not just the most traumatic decades of Latin America's fair share in the Cold War's social struggle and political abuse in America's backyard. True that the stars and the constellations depicted after the opening eposodes in the chronology are Santaolalla's findings, but this by no means is an exhaustive account but a fair introduction into the force of rock and roll as it naturally thrived on the continent's woes. The music is just great. It explores the many forms rock can be reinvented when it hits context and genius reveals itself in unexpected fusions, subgenres and scenes.

A good beginning. It is so focus on Argentina and Mexico, but what we can do if those nations are the cot of the rock in latinoamerica.

Hopefully the get more information the next season (if there's a next) about the current status of the Latin American music and their impact all around the world.

For those who says, Calle 13 and Julieta aren't rock. Is not about the kind of music they play but the inspiration the got from all the sociopolitical history of their countries that inevitably are linked with the Rock! 🤘🏼🤘🏼
