Synopsis: Trajinera calavera, tells the unfortunate experience of a catrina who, on her journey from Mictlán to the Mexican side, gets stuck in the middle of a “river”, time she takes to narrate her origin, her sorrows, replicate Mexican sayings, talking about the Mictlán, mentioning Mexican personalities and the occasional foreigner until realizing that what was believed to be a deep river is nothing more than a simple puddle, a scene that he takes advantage of to finish by explaining a typical Mexican offering.
