DanaK August 12 Share August 12 Quote Documentary that will premiere on Netflix on August 29 2024 but is not a Netflix original. The film centers on the growing pains of the Mariachi Oro ensemble of Edinburg North High School [Texas], as Acuña prepares them to go for glory at the state tournament. It transcends the genre of documentaries structured around competitions by emphasizing the deep meaning of Mariachi as a form of cultural expression for the students and their families. The endearing story of young Mariachis learning their craft under the direction of Coach Abel Acuña wowed Sundance in 2023, winning rave reviews and the festival’s Jonathan Oppenheim Editing Award for U.S. Documentary.
