This is not just a premiere; It is an event that beats with the pulse of Mexicanity and promises to move every fiber of our being. Imagine having the opportunity to be part of this historical moment, to feel the energy of a visionary who transforms what he touches into pure art.

These are the moments that life gives us to charge our souls with inspiration and remind us that beauty and community are transformative forces. Open your agenda and get ready to be part of history!
A Message of Light and Transformation Straight from the Heart
In a message as powerful as it is moving, shared through the X platform, Guillermo del Toro offered us a lesson in perspective and pride. With a wisdom that only a true artist possesses, he declared: “Some time ago I was asked how I managed to see the horrible as something beautiful and the beautiful as something horrible. The answer was very simple: because I am Mexican.” This quote is a vibrant reminder of our innate ability to find light in the darkness and beauty in the unexpected. It is an invitation to embrace our unique essence and see the world with eyes full of possibilities.
But his vision goes further. Del Toro assures us that his Frankenstein completely transcends the horror genre. It invites us to immerse ourselves in a deeply human narrative that explores “the family dynamics of parents and children”, a story “loaded with a lot of light towards a creature that only provokes horror in those who do not know it.” Isn’t this a perfect metaphor for life? Often, what we fear or don’t understand is simply a disguised opportunity to connect, learn, and love. His wish for us is that we enjoy the film with “an open heart and a lot of Mexicanness.” Accept this call: go see it with a receptive soul, ready to be transformed and to celebrate the richness of our culture.
