BARDO, FALSE CHRONICLE OF A HANDFUL OF TRUTHS Red Carpet Premieres

Screening to be followed by a conversation with Alejandro González Iñárritu, Íker Solano, Ximena Lamadrid, Griselda Siciliani, Daniel Giménez Cacho and Stacy Perskie.

Directed by five-time Academy Award®-winner Alejandro G. Iñárritu, BARDO, FALSE CHRONICLE OF A HANDFUL OF TRUTHS is an epic, visually stunning and immersive experience. After being named the recipient of a prestigious international award, Silverio (Daniel Gimenez Cacho), a renowned Mexican journalist and documentary filmmaker living in LA, is compelled to return to his native country, unaware that this would-be simple trip will push him to an existential limit. The folly of his memories and fears pierce through the present, filling his everyday life with a sense of bewilderment and wonder. With both emotion and an appreciation of the absurd, Silverio grapples with universal yet intimate questions of identity, success, mortality, the history of Mexico and the deeply emotional familial bonds he shares with his wife and children; indeed, what it means to be human in these peculiar times.
