BACURAU 🇧🇷
Directed by Kleber Mendonça Filho (@kmendoncafilho) and Juliano Dornelles
Film thread: In the 2010s Mexico produced a record number of movies. With that in mind, I’ve decided to highlight 150 Mexican films (yes, so many!) from the last decade that I think are good, great, or amazing - all worth a watch.
These are just my personal choices and in no way a definitive “best of” list. There are plenty more that I probably haven’t seen yet. For the purpose of this thread I focused on films about Mexico also mostly made by Mexican directors.

This thread highlights 135 international animated features from the 2010s (I know that’s a lot!). Animation is never appreciated enough, so I decided to celebrate these great works before the decade is over. Nobody asked for this list, but here it is for those interested:
