ABOUT THE FILMS:

AMORES PERROS, 2001, Alejandro G. Iñárritu, 153 Minutes, Lionsgate, Mexico

In the heart of ever-changing Mexico City, one horrific car accident, two dogs, and three strangers — a lovesick dog fighter, a shallow and neurotic supermodel, and a hitman running from his past — collide in a tragic twist of fate. With one of Gael García Bernal’s earliest on-screen performances, Alejandro G. Iñárritu’s shocking debut film has been considered one of the best Mexican films of the 21st century.

FORMAT: 35mm

BIRDMAN, 2014, Alejandro G. Iñárritu, 119 Minutes, Disney, USA

Struggling to mounting a Broadway play, washed-up former superhero actor, Riggan Thomas, played by Michael Keaton, battles his ego and perception about his family, career, and himself to revive a fading career. Appearing as a single shot, Alejandro G. Iñárritu’s first American film won Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Cinematography at the 87th Academy Awards and was met with universal acclaim.

FORMAT: DCP

DISTRIBUTOR: DISNEY
