With the presence of Pablo Baksht, administrative coordinator of the Morelia International Film Festival (FICM), collaborators, friends, and part of the family of the Michoacan filmmaker Dominique Jonard, the short film program was presented in his honor within the 16th edition of the FICM.

Tribute to Dominique Jonard.

"One day he came to my office when he worked at the Mexican Institute of Cinematography (IMCINE) to show me the wonderful work he did and I was very impressed with what I saw, from there, IMCINE began to support him with four productions, if I remember correctly, and we will be able to see some of them here," said Pablo Baksht minutes before starting the show.

At the end of the show, his children, collaborators, and friends remembered some anecdotes they had the opportunity to live together with him, they also recognized his work and the legacy he has left for posterity in each one of his productions.
