Tear This Heart Out 2008

A young girl recounts her girlhood and eventual marriage to a general of the Mexican devolution. Though Catalina Guzman (Ana Claudia Talancon) was born into a rural family that suffers from abject poverty, she sees a way out via a long-term relationship with the conniving, calculating general Andres Asensio (Daniel Gimenez Cacho). Asensio's aspirations extend far beyond the confines of the military: he ultimately plans to work his way up to the Mexican presidency. Dark clouds soon appear on the horizon in the form of scandals from Asensio's personal life, including time spent in jail for murder.
