With 21 years’ experience under its belt, Guanajuato International Film Festival (GIFF) has become established as the most important platform for young Latin American filmmakers and invites talented newcomers as well as renowned experts from the film industry to take part each year. Every summer thousands of people travel to the cities of San Miguel de Allende and Guanajuato capital to attend this event, which is unprecedented in the film world. This year it pays homage to the Swedish director, Ingmar Bergman, and for that they have paraphrased what was his first masterpiece "A summer with Monica" ('Sommaren med Monika', 1953), to make a retrospective of his work. And not only that, in his image and likeness, they have chosen as image an idyllic representation of that film to dress Guanajuato with his spirit.
