FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION
IFTA AWARDS 2024

“Luto” marks the feature debut of acclaimed director Andres Arochi. The film is a powerhouse visual and spiritual odyssey that fuses drama and documentary in a spellbinding journey that explores grief, life and everything in between. It's a surreal and magical film that pulls back the veil of contemporary Mexico to reveal the inescapable ancient rituals of death ingrained in the culture. “Luto” was shot entirely in Mexico, and the crew traversed over 14000 km like pilgrims setting off into the unknown.

Luto
In a desperate attempt to overcome the grief caused by his girlfriend’s passing, Damian sets off on a journey across Mexico. Haunted by memories and regrets, he finds solace through conversations with strangers, witnessing the rituals they participate in to cope with death.

Script: Andres Arochi Tinajero & Gonzalo Romero
