While the movie has latin american themes, it doesn’t ever specify a country. From the first movie, the parents met after they were both sent to kill the other one. Eventually both parents are working at the OSS. Did one parent defect? Was this inter-agency drama?

If one parent did defect, which parent changed sides? This part of the movie was set late in the cold war, which opens up a lot of different ways this could go (unless it was stated explicitly somewhere).

    A third party would make a lot of sense, then one or both started working for the official organization.

    Which brings another question, is the OSS even tied to a particular country, or are they also a secret independent “third party”

      The OSS, seems fairly solidly American. They have a direct line to the American president at points. In our world, the OSS shut down, and was replaced by the CIA/NSA, but that isn’t the case in Spy kids.
