Editor’s note: Mexico’s identity takes shape through the stories it tells, the traditions it carries forward and the objects it preserves.

In this edition, we begin at the Morelia International Film Festival, where Bruno Santamaría Razo’s “Six Months in a Pink and Blue Building” earned both the best Mexican feature prize and the audience award, turning an intimate story of childhood and family into a shared cinematic experience.

We then follow Mexico’s preparations for El Salvador’s Cordillera Challenge, where a delegation led by Indigenous ultrarunner María Lorena Ramírez Hernández will bring athletic achievement and cultural heritage to an international stage, alongside a photography exhibition. Finally, we explore Mexico’s history through 10 objects, from monumental Olmec heads and silver coins to the everyday taco stand. Together, these selections invite us to consider how both extraordinary achievements and familiar objects tell the country’s story.
