1994 - First Season English Subtitles

1
00:00:11,805 --> 00:00:16,885
I see a Mexico hungry and thirsty
for justice.

2
00:00:20,020 --> 00:00:24,070
Today, in the Mexico of 1994
that we're experiencing,

3
00:00:24,358 --> 00:00:27,198
we have an urgent need
to restore law and order,

4
00:00:27,445 --> 00:00:30,405
to restore a sense of civility
and respect for life.

5
00:00:31,073 --> 00:00:34,833
The way we see it,
the year 1994 started in 1992,

6
00:00:35,412 --> 00:00:38,962
and ended halfway through 1995.

7
00:00:44,003 --> 00:00:47,173
Mexico was aggrieved,
it had been wronged, vexed.

8
00:00:49,633 --> 00:00:53,813
It was a dark year... in my opinion.

9
00:00:56,057 --> 00:01:00,187

1
00:00:20,897 --> 00:00:23,937
Today, we say enough.

2
00:00:24,733 --> 00:00:29,203
We are guerrilla fighters,
messengers, ambassadors.

3
00:00:30,490 --> 00:00:35,580
We have taken up arms
to start a revolution.

4
00:00:36,578 --> 00:00:40,498
We fight for peace and justice.

5
00:00:43,670 --> 00:00:47,130
It was decided,
we'd rise up in arms.

6
00:00:47,590 --> 00:00:53,050
A date was set for
December 31, 1993.

7
00:00:53,387 --> 00:00:57,807
We were to attack San Cristóbal,
Altamirano, Las Margaritas,

8
00:00:58,142 --> 00:01:01,272
Chanal, Huixtán and Ocosingo.

9
00:01:02,397 --> 00:01:06,147
What was happening all over

1
00:00:25,485 --> 00:00:28,985
In the presidency, there are days
that go by like seconds.

2
00:00:29,072 --> 00:00:30,872
PRESIDENT OF MEXICO
(1988-1994)

3
00:00:30,948 --> 00:00:32,448
Because of the fast pace
of the job,

4
00:00:32,825 --> 00:00:36,115
and the attention demanded
by such a big responsibility.

5
00:00:36,997 --> 00:00:39,117
But some minutes can
stretch endlessly.

6
00:00:44,837 --> 00:00:50,717
MARCH 23, 1994

7
00:01:19,247 --> 00:01:21,747
It all started one week before.

8
00:01:21,832 --> 00:01:23,592
GOVERNOR OF BAJA CALIFORNIA, PAN
(1989-1995)

9
00:01:23,668 --> 00:01:27,338

1
00:00:17,768 --> 00:00:20,898
One chorus chanted "Who did it?"
And the usual reply was "Salinas."

2
00:00:20,980 --> 00:00:22,520
COLOSIO'S PRIVATE SECRETARY

3
00:00:32,950 --> 00:00:37,290
Immediately, people started
to speculate

4
00:00:37,830 --> 00:00:42,250
that the crime had been
ordered from the top.

5
00:00:46,047 --> 00:00:49,677
We were having a referendum
when Colosio was murdered.

6
00:00:49,707 --> 00:00:51,227
SUB-COMMANDER GALEANO
(FORMERLY MARCOS)

7
00:00:51,260 --> 00:00:56,270
The main suspect in his death was,
first and foremost, Camacho,

8
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,140
followed by Salinas.

9
00:00:59,893 --> 00:01:02,903

1
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:21,400
DECEMBER 1994

2
00:00:35,078 --> 00:00:37,408
The President-elect Ernesto Zedillo

3
00:00:37,747 --> 00:00:39,207
asked me for a meeting...

4
00:00:39,290 --> 00:00:40,750
PRESIDENT OF MEXICO (1988-1994)

5
00:00:40,833 --> 00:00:43,463
which took place here,
in this very library.

6
00:00:48,007 --> 00:00:50,007
What did the President-elect
propose to me?

7
00:00:50,302 --> 00:00:54,352
"It'd be convenient to devaluate,
as the peso is overvalued."

8
00:00:58,643 --> 00:01:04,073
For the idea of a devaluation
to hold up over time,

9
00:01:04,648 --> 00:01:06,988
the administration
must have credibility.
