Dear producers and/or filmmakers.

Through this platform we inform you that the first edition of the Mexico City Ibero-American Film Exhibition has been postponed to the first half of 2022 (exact dates to be defined) due to the health situation of the COVID 19 pandemic.

This decision has been made, after a thorough analysis, by the General Direction of the event since the situation of the pandemic is still delicate in Mexico City and the first edition of the Mexico City Ibero-American Film Exhibition wants to be carried out in its entirety with audience in the cinemas.

We would like to inform you that all registered works will continue to be taken into consideration for the first edition to be held next year.

We greatly appreciate your valuable understanding.

Sincerely
General Direction
Mexico City Ibero-American Film Exhibition


The Mexico City Ibero-American Film Exhibition invites filmmakers and/or producers of feature films and short films from all over Ibero-America to submit their films to the first edition that will take place during November 2021.
