This book is an ode, an elegy, a celebration of all things Lupe Ontiveros: her many roles, her many facades and the joy she brought to the mostly one-dimensional characters to which she was relegated. Here, screenshots capture a moment or a glimpse or a gesture of Ontiveros' charm and wit.

All images were produced with a Sony Mavigraph and captured from a VHS tape.
