Martínez played the martial arts enthusiast turned militant in the film and stole the show with a irreverent performance; one that includes Fermín showing off his martial arts routines with a stick but completely naked, dangly bits and all.
L.A. Times reports that Roma distributor Netflix helped obtain non-immigrant visa for the Martínez through the U.S. Embassy in Mexico.
