Diego Luna film festival circuit 2026

Entities: Diego Luna · Ceniza en la boca · Ashes · Sarajevo Film Festival · Heart of Honor

Overview

In mid‑July 2026, Diego Luna’s fourth feature, *Ceniza en la boca* (released internationally as *Ashes*), was selected for the Horizons Latinos section of the San Sebastián International Film Festival, slated to compete in September and set for a Spanish theatrical release in October. The film, co‑produced by Mexican and Spanish companies, explores Mexican migration to Spain.

Later in July, the 32nd Sarajevo Film Festival announced that Luna will be honoured with the Honorary Heart of Sarajevo (also referred to as the Heart of Honor). The award ceremony in August will present him with a statue, screen a special selection of his work, and feature a masterclass for emerging filmmakers. The festival will also screen *Ashes* and provide Luna the opportunity to present his latest feature, a story of two Mexican brothers migrating to Madrid. Festival directors highlighted his three‑decade career and his influence on Latin American cultural narratives, underscoring his heightened visibility on the European festival circuit during the summer of 2026.
