The great event of the second half of October was the Morelia International Film Festival, in Mexico, which offers a strong showcase for French films each year. This year, Patrice Leconte, a jury member for the "Mexican Feature Film" section, was a guest of honor (along with Julie Bertuccelli and Olivier Assayas). He thus presented Ridicule to a packed cinema (photo).
