Director José Pablo Estrada Torrescano unearths family secrets in his debut feature Mamacita. When the aspiring director went to study film abroad, his grandmother made him promise to return to Mexico one day to make a film about her life. Little did he know that his film would unearth secrets, lies and deceptions affecting five generations of a high society Mexican family. Mamacita, José Pablos grandmother, is an extravagant Mexican beauty queen living in her own kingdom with her loyal servants: gardener, chauffeur, chef, housekeeper and nurses. The 95-year-old lady has turned her house into a castle, hiding the open wounds of a prominent Mexican upper class family behind its stone walls. José Pablo conquers his grannys empire like a Trojan horse, discovering the haunted spirits of his own past and the reason for the lack of love that his entire clan has suffered from for generations.

El realizador José Pablo Estrada Torrescano desentierra secretos de familia en su ópera prima Mamacita. Cuando el director en ciernes viaja al extranjero para estudiar cine, su abuela le hace prometer que volverá a México para filmar una película sobre su vida algún día. Poco se imaginaría ella que su película sacaría a relucir secretos, mentiras y decepciones que han afectado a cinco generaciones de esta familia mexicana de clase acomodada. Mamacita, la abuela de José Pablo, es una extravagante reina de belleza que vive en su reino en compañía de sus fieles sirvientes: su jardinero, su chofer, su cocinero, su ama de llaves y sus enfermeras. La mujer de 95 años ha convertido su casa en un castillo, ocultando las heridas abiertas de una familia mexicana de clase alta detrás de sus paredes de piedra. José Pablo conquista el imperio de su abuela como un caballo de Troya, descubriendo los embrujados espíritus de su propio pasado y la razón por la falta de amor que todo su clan ha sufrido por generaciones.
