Storyline

In the 60's, Puerto Vallarta rose to fame thanks to a Hollywood production named The Night of the Iguana, sparking rapid tourism growth. This documentary explores the environmental and social impacts of the hotel industry’s rise, highlighting the forgotten conservation plan by Jacques Cousteau, the displacement of locals, and the barriers they face in accessing their beaches.
