Cantinero

Summary Roberto is a man who has worked 60 years in a bar, always giving his best effort. From an early age, at just 17, he made his start in what he refers to as "el ambiente," or "the milieu." At first his job was to move cars, and today he has served 46 years behind the bar at La Potosina. We see in Roberto a man proud of his work, and from his position behind the bar he tells us how "Emiliano Zapata and Pancho Villa came here for tequilas, and Fidel Castro and Guadalupe Posadas also came for drinks," the anecdotes told through a melancholy smile at something he did not experience first-hand but which is an important part of his profession: to serve, listen, learn, converse, and even "act as psychologist."
