Alejandro G. Iñárritu on why “Amores Perros" (2000) was an important movie in Mexican history:

"Even when we were a very small independent film in a very small section that is not even official, it became the film that everybody wanted to see."

When they made “Amores Perros" Iñárritu said, the Mexican film industry was producing only five to seven local films a year from the same few directors, with a nationalistic flavor, subsidized by the government. Maybe one would wind up in theaters.

“Every director that I knew at that time, they [had] just made one film. And they were already 50 years old. A film was considered a one-time opportunity, and you better make sure that you put all you have to say there."

'"Amores Perros' had an incredible, solid, complex script. Mexico City is a complex city with incredible ancient culture with visual traditions. It has the third most museums in the world. And we were middle-class, educated. So we can see and observe: low, high, wherever. We were having access to many things.

We were all Chilango, so we knew exactly how that city smells and feels. There was a new government coming, that threw out the party dictatorship of 70 years. So there was hope and a feeling that we needed to shake who we were, how we talk about ourselves, how we see ourselves. This film came into the right moment."

P.S: On this day, 26 years ago, “Amores Perros" (2000) premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, France.
