Written, directed and produced by Alonso Ruizpalacios, the black-and-white feature took the best first film award at the 2014 Berlin Film Festival. Gueros also won three awards at last year’s Tribeca Film Festival including Best New Narrative Director. More recently Gueros garnered a dozen Ariel Award nominations. Ruizpalacios’ 2010 short El último canto del pájaro cú won an Ariel for Best Short Fiction Film. Kino Lorber will debut the movie at New York’s Film Forum on May 20, with additional key markets and digital platforms to follow.
