How far will a journalist go to get the story? Starring John Leguizamo as the man faced with this dilemma, Cronicas is a suspenseful thriller that questions who the true monster is: the criminal, the media, or our society? In theaters July 8th.

The official Oscar selection from Ecuador in the Best Foreign Language Film category, Cronicas is the gripping new crime drama from sophomore writer/director Sebastian Cordero (Ratas, Ratones, Rateros).

Produced by acclaimed filmmakers Alfonso Cuaron (Y Tu Mama Tambien, Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban) and Guillermo del Toro (Hell Boy, Mimic) Cronicas stars John Leguizamo (Golden Globe nominee for Best Supporting Actor in To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything! Julie Newmar) as Manolo Bonilla, a star reporter for a Miami-based tabloid TV show, who is determined to unearth a serial killer in a small town in Ecuador. But how far will Manolo go to get the story?
