La revolución que sacudió a México de 1910 a 1920, y que continuó en forma de guerra civil hasta 1929, es un evento que de muchas formas sigue presente en el país y en el mundo. Esta serie de diez películas sirve como un legado cinematográfico de los personajes y eventos de esta revolución inconclusa.
