The program also featured the participation of prominent figures from disciplines related to the industry, such as director and actress ngeles Cruz, Daniela Alatorre -Head of the Mexican Institute of Cinematography-, anti-ableism activist Guz Guevara, Leo Cordero -Content Executive at Netflix Mexico-, producer M nica Lozano, Sandra G mez -Director of MUBI Latin America-, among many others.

Gael Castillo - State of Mexico Filmmaker with a digital focus. Founder of NezaFilms.
