Written, produced, photographed, directed, and manipulated during performance by Rafael Corkidi, the "video theater" Querida Benita (1989) is a spectacle that breaks with the formats of film and video by situating itself in a sui generis setting (the Manuel M. Ponce Hall of the Palace of Fine Arts or a small stage in the basement of the El Juglar bookstore in August-October 1989), but it encounters the limitations of the dramatic current that it, moreover, inaugurates. These are the limitations of Mexican socialist unrealism.
