Fresh guac, a good ol’ shot of tequila, Frida Kahlo – paints a picture, doesn’t it? The fifth largest country of the Americas is home to a lot more than what these three keywords can tell you.

To share this narrative, Mexican native Aleph Molinari, an editor, writer, art director and photographer, along with Anfisa Vrubel, an editor, writer, and researcher whose work focuses on the intersection of art, culture, and politics, have published a tell-all coffee table book to introduce the world to the details of the city’s cultural and cinematic landscape, and to celebrate its rich history that dates all the way back to the fourteenth century.
