Los Cabos 2015 Preview: Mexico, Canada, And U.S. Get A New Spotlight
The fourth edition of the Los Cabos International Film Festival kicks off tonight with the Mexican premiere of Demolition, which is part of a tribute to filmmaker Jean-Marc Vallée.
The festival is held in Cabo San Lucas, located at the southern tip of Baja California in Mexico. Known as a tourist destination, the region enjoys a tropical desert climate, and if it sounds like I'm regurgitating a page from Wikipedia, that's because I am. I've never been to the area before, but if all goes well, I should be on the ground there by the time this preview is published.
What delights are in store for festival-goers? The official description says the fest "hosts a forum for dialogue and collaboration between Mexican cinema and its North American cultural commercial partners." In other words, a spotlight is turned toward films from Mexico, Canada, and the U.S. I break down some of the anticipated highlights below.
