Diego Luna Discusses Migration and Latino American Experience in U.S. at Biarritz Festival
Mexican actor and director Diego Luna participated in an interview at the Festival Biarritz Amérique Latine, where he addressed significant topics including migration, the current situation in Mexico, and the experiences of Latino Americans in the United States. Luna presented his film 'Ceniza en la boca' (Ashes in the Mouth) at the festival, a movie that explores the consequences of family migration. During the discussion, Luna emphasized that migration from Mexico is a long-standing phenomenon driven by various factors such as violence, political reasons, and climate change, rather than a proposed solution. He highlighted Mexico's extensive history of migration, with many individuals seeking opportunities abroad or fleeing difficult circumstances. Luna's film 'Ceniza en la boca' tells the story of two young siblings traveling from Mexico to Madrid to reunite with their mother, who has been living and working in Spain for years, thereby delving into the personal and familial impacts of migration.
