Morelia Presents Standout Shorts at Cannes’ Critics Week
Anna Marie de la Fuente In keeping with a tradition that began in 2005, the Morelia Int’l Film Festival will showcase a selection of shorts at Cannes’ Critics Week.As festival director Daniela Michel explained: “The selection is made by the Critics’ Week team directly.
Every year, a member of that team is invited to participate in our Mexican Short Film jury; they make a shortlist of films for the program in Cannes and the programming team narrows it down to four shorts.”The shorts chosen from Morelia’s prior edition underscore the diversity of themes and genres that are currently explored in Mexican cinema, from family ties that bind to black and white animation.
It’s a strategic alliance between the festivals that has allowed some 40 short Mexican films to screen in Cannes through the years, with the presence of some of the filmmakers and talent behind them.
