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.
