LA TRAGEDIA REVIEWED BY BOXOFFICE

Inspired by a real incident in which 19 illegal immigrants died a similar death, "La Tragedia de Macario" takes one of the great issues of our time and makes it human in scale. The suffocation scene is surely one of the most terrifying sequences that will appear in any movie shown this year. - Ray Greene -- Boxoffice.com

CANARY ISLANDS FILM EXHIBIT

Pablo and CINEVELIZ crew attended the Canary Islands film showcase at the Instituto de Mexico and got to meet the Producers and Directors. Pablo’s favorite film at the festival was La Hora Fria (Cold Hour) directed by Elio Quiroga. The film is a Scifi mystery. This even showcased an array of films from the Canary Islands as part of the Sister City cultural exchange initiative celebrating the 275th anniversary of the city.
