Morelos, Mexico. 1910. \u00a0The son of a wealthy landowner returns to his parents\u2019 home to find his future\u2026only to fall deeply in love with a humble servant girl. As forbidden personal passions burn, so too do political ambitions. It is the eve of the Mexican Revolution. And what happens on the hacienda changes destinies forever. El Pasado is a gripping, deeply emotional story that takes audiences from long-ago Mexico to present-day Chicago. It is a tale of lovers and freedom fighters, scandal and heroism, hopes and dreams-and the legacy of our ancestors that lives within us all.<\/p>\n
