Director Felipe Cazals adopts a gritty documentary style to narrate the events in Canoa while referencing the climate of political repression that would lead to the massacre of student protesters in Mexico City shortly thereafter. The resulting film is a daring commentary on ideological manipulation, religious fanaticism, and mass violence, as well as a visceral expression of horror.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"header_lvl2 hideSmall\" data-feature-title-field=\"\"\u003eDirector-Approved Special Edition Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-features-list\" data-special-features-field=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew, restored 4K digital transfer, supervised by director Felipe Cazals, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack on the Blu-ray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew introduction by filmmaker Guillermo del Toro\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew conversation between filmmaker Alfonso Cuarón and Cazals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrailer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew English subtitle translation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePLUS: An essay by critic Fernanda Solórzano\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNew cover by Adam Maida\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Criterion Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44616479113416,"sku":"CC2743DDVD","price":39.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/8486\/3688\/files\/canoadvd.jpg?v=1746484037","url":"https:\/\/videomatica.com\/products\/canoa-a-shameful-memory-dvd","provider":"Videomatica Ltd (since 1983)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
