The films look at Mexico\u2019s history, everyday life, social realities and cultural identity, from personal stories to wider political and social questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Co-hosted by Baturu, UNAM and Chulalongkorn University, with support from the Embassy of Mexico, the first Mexican Film Festival in Bangkok brings Mexican stories to a new audience in Thailand. The festival runs from 1 and 3\u20134 September, with the opening night at Baturu Incubator Space before the programme moves to the Dr. Tiem Chokwadhana Auditorium at the Faculty of Communication Arts, Chulalongkorn University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But this is not just a film showcase. It is a chance for Thailand and Mexico to meet through cinema, with stories that can spark new conversations across cultures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The conversation also goes beyond the screen. Directors Alfonso Coronel and Valentina Leduc will join the festival in Bangkok for post-screening Q&amp;A sessions, with audiences able to hear directly from the filmmakers about their work and the ideas behind it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-meet-the-filmmakers\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Meet the Filmmakers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The festival goes beyond the films with exclusive post-screening Q&amp;A sessions featuring directors Alfonso Coronel and Valentina Leduc.
