Diego Luna presents Ceniza en la boca to its first audience in Mexico
Diego Luna introduced his new film, Ceniza en la boca, to an audience in Mexico City at a special screening on November 5.
The Mexican actor and filmmaker said the audience was likely the first in the country to see the film.
The film is based on a novel by Mexican writer Brenda Navarro, but Luna said it was not intended as a literal screen version of the book.
It follows Lucila, a 21-year-old Mexican woman who travels to Spain with her younger brother to reunite with their mother, Isabel.
The story explores family separation and absence, including the relationship between a daughter and her mother.
Luna urged viewers to recommend the film if it moved them, saying early audience turnout can affect how long a film stays in cinemas.
The film had already screened at international festivals and opened in Spain; Luna described its presentation to Mexican audiences as especially important to the team.

What people are saying
Ustedes no lo saben, pero yo creo que son el primer público que va a ver nuestra película en el país
Para nosotros, este es el lugar más especial, el lugar más importante
Si ustedes creen que hay alguien allá afuera que tiene que ver esta película, por favor, háganle saber que lo tienen que hacer este fin de semana
Si el público no asiste al cine y a ver las películas en el cine en su primer fin de semana, lo más probable es que esas películas desaparezcan de las salas
