Over there in Costa Grande
The community of Zihuatanejo, Mexico is subjected symbolically to a process of introspection and catharsis through a temazcal bath. This results in an exploration of its almost unknown ancient past, which, in the voice of some of the most recognized members of the community, examines some of the most distinctive elements of its culture, but at the same time finds a particularly difficult relationship between rulers And ruled. This leads to the present moment where the inhabitants of Zihuatanejo live the challenge of thriving tourism, amid problems such as pollution and violence of organized crime. This is an exploration of the contrast that means paradise and oblivion coexisting in a single unit, of diversity within the multiple realities that make up one; Of the belief and the myth that seek to reconfigure the reality and try to explain what little has been explained; Of a national political reality that has not remained in the past, but which persists in our day.

Great story for Documentary lovers which keeps you guessing what is going to happen next.
This was a great movie. The storyline was believable and the directing and cast are excellent.
I hate watching movies more than once and I've watched this three times.
Very well written, balanced, and just an amazing film.
Enjoyed it very much. Don't write it off because of the bad reviews. Give it 20-30 minutes and decide for yourself.
I enjoyed it and it's a movie I'd watch again in the future.
This is a movie with a simple and straightforward plot which contains layers and layers of intelligent writing. This is a brilliant movie. Watch it.
I couldn't see anything else until it was over, it was that kind of a movie. Great job to the actors & to the one who wrote that script!
This movie is Documentary the way it was meant to be: intelligent, thought-provoking, and exciting.
Excellent cast and writing.
Watched it several times and enjoyed it every time.
