The film ‘Cristiada’ (internationally titled ‘For Greater Glory’) is scheduled for a re-release in Mexican cinemas on October 15, marking the centenary of the Cristero War. Originally released in 2012, the production features an international cast including Andy García, Oscar Isaac, and Eva Longoria.

The re-release will include new Spanish-language dubbing, with lead actor Andy García providing the Spanish voiceover for his character. The initiative aims to educate younger generations about the early 20th-century conflict, which was sparked by anticlericalism and restrictions on Catholic worship.

Religious figures, including Monsignor Guillermo Fernández Orozco, have noted that the film serves to preserve historical memory. He emphasized that the conflict should be analyzed through its social causes and consequences rather than being viewed strictly as a confrontation between Church and State.
