In 1994 everything happened in Mexico. The political and economic events of that time are inseparable from the current situation of the country and explain it.

The year began with the entry into force of a trade agreement with the United States and Canada. It ended on the eve of Christmas Eve with the awakening of the Popocatépetl volcano, which launched a two-kilometer column of fireworks into the air. All this was happening while Mexico tried to convince the world that it was advancing along the path of modernity while the Zapatistas launched the negative of the photograph.
