Every year, the Guanajuato International Film Festival pays tribute to people who have left their mark in Mexican and world cinema, and we\u2019ll have a Guest Country of Honor that has made its own mark in world cinema. This year, the festival will pay tribute to premier actor Eric del Castillo (born in Guanajuato, with a career that spans 400 movies) actress Jacqueline Andere and Guadalupe Ferrer, director of Filmoteca UNAM. Our Guest Country of Honor is Turkey, which celebrates its centennial in filmmaking this year.<\/p>\n

NATIONAL TRIBUTE:<\/strong> Eric del Castillo\"ErikDelCastillo\" was born on July 22, 1934 in Room 11 of Hotel Juarez and now, after a 60-year career in which he has killed 200 men on screen and fought El Santo in Santo vs. El Estrangulador, he returns to the land where, according to an indigenous custom, his umbilical cord was \u201cburied in a well\u201d.<\/p>\n

TURKEY, GUEST COUNTRY OF HONOR:<\/strong> Through its film institutions and special deliveries, Turkey will celebrate its cinematic centennial by showing a highlighted selection of its filmography. Among them we will show a Gala Event of \u201cSivas\u201d by director Kaan M\u00fcjdeci (who will be present), about an 11-year-old boy who rescues a sheepdog named Sivas and then uses him to impress his classmates. We will also show Cannes\u2019 2014 Palm d\u2019Or winner Winter Sleep, directed by Nuri Bilg\u00e9 Ceylan, about three people stuck together at a hotel in Anatolia (the hotel\u2019s owner, his wife and his sister) due to the snow that falls in winter. Actress Melisa S\u00f6zen will be present. We will also show Ceylan\u2019s earlier film Once Upon a Time in Anatolia, about a group of men in search of a dead body in the Anatolian Steppe.
