As in previous years, seven French feature films will set off for Mexico from September 19, before continuing their journey across the continent in October, via the very popular Latin-American Tour de Cine Francés, now in its 28th year.
Co-organized by Mexican French film distribution company Nueva Era Films, the Cinépolis exhibition chain, the country's Alliances Françaises network, and the Ambassade de France in Mexico, the Tour de Cine Francés attracted 253,000 spectators in 2023 - the absolute record remaining the 420,000 admissions recorded in 2018.
This year, the selection will once again visit, in addition to 73 cities in Mexico, fifteen cities in Central America (Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua) for a total of nearly 200 cinemas.
Several artists are supporting the Tour by taking part in a virtual press-junket organized at Unifrance on the eve of its launch: Pascal Bonitzer, Guillaume Nicloux, Léa Domenach, Olivier Nakache, Eric Toledano, Nathan Ambrosioni.
