La Pachanga (The Party) is a 1981 Mexican comedy film, directed by José Estrada. The film received three Ariel Awards in 1983: Best Director, Best Editing and Best Art Direction.
During a weekend in Mexico City, the inhabitants of an old apartment building held two separate ceremonies: a quinceañera and a wake. Neighbors are mixed between the two parties while love, sex, comedy and tragedy are combined.
The Ariel Awards are awarded annually by the Mexican Academy of Film Arts and Sciences in Mexico. La Pachanga received three awards out of eight nominations.
