Win a Double Pass to the Hola Mexico Film Festival

Some of the best things in life are from Mexico. Tacos, burritos, enchiladas, quesadillas, fajitas, tequila, sombreros, piñatas, nachos, fiestas and siestas! Add movies to that list too, while we're at it.

Before I did a class in International Cinema, I thought that Mexican cinema was akin to the Three Amigos, and I haven't even seen that movie. The truth is that Mexican films are some of the most evocative, passionate and well-directed in the history of cinema.

Amores Perros and Y Tú Mama También are two of my most favourite Mexican films because of the raw feel and incredible acting in each. And you can't deny that Gael Garcia Bernal is one sexy hunk of man meat.

If you haven't seen any movies from Mexico and can't nab a seat in a university lecture, then the Hola Mexico Film Festival – supported by our favourite representation of Mexico, Mad Mex - would definitely be the place to start. There's 16 films on the schedule, including comedies, action thrillers and tear jerkers. It spans for 4 days from 1-4 December at the Tribal Theatre.

Foreign films don't have to be so foreign, which is why we are giving you amigos a helping hand - señors and señoritas, we have 25 double passes to the Hola Mexico Film Festival to give away. Make sure you subscribe then shoot us an email to [email protected] with your name and phone number for your chance to win*. Andalé, andalé!
