Courtesy of La Corriente del Golfo Luxbox has come on board to handle world sales on “Ashes” (Ceniza en la boca), directed by Diego Luna, which has its world premiere in the Special Screenings section at the Cannes Film Festival.
The drama centers on Lucila. She leaves Mexico with her younger brother to reunite with their mother in Madrid, who left a few years earlier chasing a better future. When they finally arrive, the bitter, suffocating reality that awaits them proves far harsher than Lucila had imagined. Still, she is determined to make the most of this fragile new life.
