Rain | Morelia Film Festival

B/N | 95:00

Six interconnected stories of characters wandering Mexico City in the rain, all subsumed in everyday despair. Each character has an unexpected encounter that offers them a glimpse of their own soul: a unique, absurd, luminous, or awkward moment that reveals who they truly are. After these fleeting experiences are over, they sink back into the gloom.

The Follies

Six women, undergoing processes of self-discovery marked by confinement, self-censorship, and social and family pressure, unexpectedly cross paths on a rainy day in Mexico City. The film embraces the intensity and authenticity of human emotions when pushed to the limit. See More

Raymond & Ray

Half-brothers Raymond and Ray have always lived in the shadow of a terrible father. Somehow, they both still have a sense of humor, and his funeral is a chance for them to reinvent themselves. There’s anger, there’s pain, there’s folly, there might be love, and there’s definitely gravedigging.

Revolución

Ten different voices join together to create a contemporary vision of the Revolution in Mexico. There is not only one interpretation presented of this historic event, but rather a wide range of views about the concept of revolution — its social significance as well as its more intimate, personal meaning. These stories try to offer a plural perspective through varied aesthetic perceptions that enrich our collective imagination.
