Monterrey - Post Report Question and Answers

Do you recommend any books or movies about this city/country for those who are interested in learning more?

While there aren’t many books or films specifically about Monterrey, there are excellent resources that offer insight into Mexico’s broader social and political landscape. - Sierra Madre (HBO) is a sharp, satirical series loosely inspired by politics in northern Mexico. The main character closely resembles the current mayor of San Pedro, and the show captures the complex mix of wealth, ambition, and regional identity. - Midnight in Mexico by Alfredo Corchado is a gripping journalist’s account of organized crime and U.S.-Mexico relations. - Narcos: Mexico (Netflix) provides a dramatized but informative view of cartel dynamics, many of which have roots in the north. - Roma (Netflix) offers a moving portrayal of class and culture in Mexican society. - Mar 2025
