FILM

THE MICHOACAN FILE, Bernardo Arsuaga, 1h and 31m, 2024

Mexican food culture is the focus of this exciting documentary that kicks off the evening's Mexican festive event. We delve into the incredible story of how Mexico, in 2010, became the first country in the world to be added to UNESCO's prestigious World Heritage List. For all who love Mexican food, it's not only about the delightful dishes we get to enjoy and the challenges of actually making it onto the list after much adversity; it is an eye-opener to discover how Mexican food culture and ingredients have traveled across large parts of the world over many years.

The film will be introduced by The Ambassador of Mexico in Norway Mr. Omar Fayad Meneses.

MUSIC

The stage is specially decorated for the evening by artist Lucia Diaz del Castillo, featuring an altar and extensive decorations in true Mexican ceremonial style.
