Cannes, France, Jul 16 (EFE).- A pair of movies with a Mexican director and co-producer, respectively, “Noche de Fuego” (Prayers for the Stolen) and “La civil,” were honored on Friday in the Cannes Film Festival’s Un Certain Regard sidebar competition.
Both pictures explore the collateral damage associated with Mexico’s endemic drug-fueled violence, with the former being told through the eyes of three young girls and the latter focused on a mother’s desperate struggle to rescue a teenage daughter abducted by a cartel.
