Jaime Humberto Hermosillo

Jaime Humberto Hermosillo was born in Aguascalientes on 22 January 1942. He made several dozen films over half a century, in sixteen millimetre, thirty-five millimetre or video, in which he attacked the hypocrisy of the Mexican middle class. He was among the first filmmakers of his country to show homosexual characters with respect, without ridiculing them. He taught cinema at the University of Guadalajara, where he worked with his students, and died in that city on 13 January 2020.
